Mary accepts her first teaching job in Willow Prairie, a backwoods settlement where the people distrust outsiders and book learning alike. Rachel Peel, a stern woman who rules the community's opinions, and Caleb Fisher make it clear Mary is not welcome.
Mary is ready to give up and come home, but she discovers the secret behind Rachel Peel's hostility: the woman can't read. Understanding that changes everything about how Mary can reach the people of Willow Prairie.
