I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). She meets Tommy's parents and the mother takes her under her wing with school things. She leaves there with $700 and gets on a bus to Chicago, stops for dinner and stays there, gets a Litttjob and meets up Tommy who's there often because his mother no longer cooks meals and she's returning to work, a teacher at high school. Mirabeth is to live with the nuns and give up the baby and not see the members of her family til after. The daughter becomes pregnant when she is raped at a prom. The book also follows another family, a father, mother, teen daugher, Noelle and teen daughter. Parents were always argueing and Tommy gave up on sports and school. Tommy the son can't stand to be in the house because it reminds him of Annie so he stays at practice. Family grieves her as she was their last gift, an angel. Christmas eve the little girl comes down with they think is a cold. Set in the 1950s, The Gift (released in 1994) allows readers to return to a simpler time.
