About this audiobook
This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design. "Just in Time" by Catharine Shaw follows Pollie, a spirited young girl living with her family at a mill, as she navigates the complexities of family dynamics and personal growth. Pollie struggles under the expectations of her mother and the harsh criticisms of her brother, Jim, often finding herself in trouble for forgetting chores. Her internal conflict between a desire for freedom and familial responsibilities sets the stage for a journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. The narrative unfolds as Pollie's mother plans a visit to Aunt Elizabeth, which Pollie initially resents, feeling that her achievements go unnoticed. Her father's gentle guidance hints at deeper themes of faith and spiritual fulfillment. Upon arriving at her affluent aunt's home, Pollie experiences excitement and homesickness. The stark contrast between her life and that of her fashionable cousins, Laura and Clara, instills feelings of inadequacy, especially regarding her appearance and clothing. Pollie's visit introduces her to new social dynamics as she witnesses the complexities of adolescence and family relationships. She grapples with her sense of right and wrong amidst her cousins' secretive behavior and feels increasingly isolated in this new environment. Despite Clara's dismissive remarks about their differing backgrounds, Pollie finds solace with Miss Loveday, a friend of her father, who introduces her to the comfort of faith in Jesus. Encouraged by Miss Loveday, Pollie attends a meeting where she experiences a revelation about faith, realizing it is not about striving for perfection but looking to Jesus. This spiritual insight marks the beginning of her journey toward self-understanding and reconciliation with her family. As she struggles with pride and insecurities that hinder her progress, Pollie faces the challenges of communication and reconciliation within her loving household. Ultimately, her story captures themes of growth, faith, and the complexities of familial love.
