The Autumn of Aunt Charlotte

Elderly Aunt Charlotte is brought from her childhood home in Maine to live under the watchful eye of her nephew in historical Wethersfield, Connecticut. It is here that Aunt Charlotte and her grandniece, Karen, learn about life and living from each other. Aunt Charlotte helps Karen with the problems she is experiencing growing up, and teaches lessons she, herself, learned as a child. As the story unfolds, Karen and Aunt Charlotte share many experiences, some humorous and some sad. These two unlikely "best friends" help Karen's parents to understand the importance of feeling independent, regardless of one's age.
