The Windy Hill by Cornelia Meigs

3.0

One of the earliest Newbery Honor books, The Windy Hill is the story of two teens (Oliver and Janet) learning about their family's history via stories told by the mysterious Beeman while they stay with an uncle who is under some kind of duress. Overall, this is the most moralistic of the books from the 1922 Newbery cycle. I read this for my 2017 Reading Challenge "read a book published between 1900 and 1950" (Read Harder) and my Newbery Challenge.
