Through the Woods

"Back near the shore the minnows would come near me and nibble on my toes which made me laugh. After about an hour as I became all pruned up I would feel a stinging sensation and knew that those darn blood suckers had gotten into my shorts again."

Revisit a simpler time in Margie Mack's heartwarming memoir, "Through the Woods."

After her parents' divorce, Margie's mother, an aspiring pianist, thought it best if her daughter grew up in the care of her grandparents.

Despite ongoing health battles, Margie's grandparents agreed to raise her-and so began an adventure that would take Margie through the wooded forests and the inviting Fox river of her new home in Colby's Point, Illinois.

Over the course of ten stories brimming with laughter, family, and hard-earned lessons, Margie recalls the beauty of her childhood and the inspirational people who surrounded her. Each tale blends seamlessly into the next, forming a tapestry of memories that will live on forever.

So join Margie as she embarks on the journey, complete with unforeseen obstacles and exciting triumphs, that helped shape her into the woman she is today.
