Details

Sarah, Plain and Tall #1592 "I will come by train. I will wear a yellow bonnet. I am plain and tall." In the late 19th century a widowed Midwestern farmer with two children, Anna and Caleb, advertises for a mail-order bride. Sarah Elisabeth Wheaton from Maine answers the ad and agrees to come for a month. Sarah brings gifts from the sea, a cat named Seal, and singing and laughter to the quiet house. The children fear that she will not stay, and when she goes off to town alone. But she returns to explain that, though she misses her home, "the truth of it is I would miss you more."
