Laura is growing up quickly. This book follows her through her first teaching job, which is a hard time for Laura. It is twelve miles from home, and she must board with a family who does not welcome her. To her surprise, Almonzo comes faithfully every weekend to take her home, and then he brings her back in time for the next week of school.

Eventually, Laura realizes how much she looks forward to her Sunday afternoons with Almonzo. It's a fast-paced time of life for Laura, who also finishes her own schooling as well as working two other terms as a teacher and working at other jobs.
