About this listen

 In a quaint northern Michigan town, a once-thriving dock has transformed into The Cinder Pond, a hidden world filled with stories and secrets. Jean, a young girl raised by squatters on the abandoned dock, finds her life intertwined with fortune, bravery, and a tantalizing mystery that alters her fate and that of her friends. Although her father, a true gentleman, dreams of a refined upbringing for her, Jean is sent away to live with relatives who never embrace her. Only her grandfather, lonely and kind, learns to appreciate her spirit, leading to a poignant reunion at Cinder Pond where Jean steps into her role as a caretaker for her step-siblings. This enchanting tale captures the essence of resilience and the warmth of found family, celebrating the joy of helping others amidst lifes trials.
