Originally published more than 125 years ago in the Elsie Dinsmore series, these newly-updated stories introduce another young girl whose strong faith is a powerful example for today's girls---Violet Travilla, the daughter of Elsie Dinsmore. Violet is a fourteen-year-old Christian girl growing up in the late 1800s. Today's readers will find it easy to identify with Violet's growing faith and struggle toward maturity. Book one begins in 1877, when creative, independent fourteen-year-old Violet learns that growing up brings new problems, feelings, and questions. As the entire Travilla family faces a tragic loss, Violet discovers that true faith defeats even hidden doubts.
As a parent of an autistic son, as well as the director of a pediatric neuro-developmental center, Dr. Sanders draws both on his personal experience and his clinical background to guide therapists in what to say to parents and how to say it.

In Violet's Turning Point, Vi Travilla and her friends visit New York City. They expect a summer holiday filled with shopping, sightseeing, and social occasions in America's most exciting city, but things quickly become complicated.
Since some believe that faith and logic are opposites, some consider faith to be nothing more than a naive acceptance of certain religious truths, while it is the exact opposite.
