Anna's Fight for Hope

Time Period: 1931 Twenty-five percent unemployment, food lines, banks and businesses closing. . . The Great Depression was not only a national catastrophe, but a personal one, as well. Times are tough for Anna Harrington. But times are even tougher for her friends Dot, whose family is hungry and may lose its home, and Chet, who is riding the railcars as a hobo looking for work. Anna and her cousin come up with some ideas to help, but will they be enough when jobs and food are scarce, and authorities make things difficult?
