Description:

A few hours after nine-year-old Garnet Linden finds a silver ì thimble in the dried-up riverbed, the rains come and end the long ì drought on the farm. The rains bring safety for the crops and the ì livestock, and money for Garnet's father. Garnet can't help ì feeling that the thimble is a magic talisman, for the summer ì proves to be interesting and exciting in so many different ways. There is the arrival of Eric, an orphan who becomes a member of ì the Linden family; the building of a new barn; and the county ì fair at which Garnet's carefully tended pig, Timmy, wins a blue ì ribbon. Every day brings adventure of some kind to Garnet and her ì best friend, Citronella. As far as Garnet is concerned, the ì thimble is responsible for each good thing that happens during ì this magic summer-her thimble summer.
