    About this ebook

    Guide books or book notes are primarily written to make students understand the original text better, especially from all those angles which are often overlooked by a casual reader.

    But, in the recent years it has been noticed that a very large majority of the students, without reading the original texts, rely on the guide books or notes prepared by their teachers or others. This is definitely not a healthy habit because students do pass their exams with the help of such notes; they miss so many things which haunt them in their later lives.

    I would strongly advise all students to read the original text once again even if you have already read it, after reading this short treatise. You will see that the same story, after reading this treatise, will begin to give many new meanings to you.

    All the best.

      Guide books or book notes are primarily written to make students understand the original text better, especially from all those angles which are often overlooked by a casual reader.

      Chapter Two: About Irene Hunt

      Irene Hunt was born on 18th May, 1907 in Pontiac, Illinois. After a few days of her birth, her father, Franklin P. and her mother, Sarah Land, moved to Newton, Illinois.

      Unfortunately, when Irene Hunt was only seven years old, her father passed away. The family was compelled to move again to be near to Hunt’s grandparents. Her childhood was not so pleasant, for she was mostly lonely. Irene Hunt had a very special relationship with her grandfather. He often told her stories which used to be highly informative for Irene Hunt. The grandfather mostly told her stories about his childhood during the Civil War.

      In the later years, the stories which the grandfather told her established the base of the story of Jethro in her famous book Across Five Aprils.

      She completed her graduation from the University of Illinois in Urbana. Then she went to the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis. She obtained her M. A. degree from the University of Minnesota.

      Irene Hunt started teaching English and French in Illinois public schools. She joined the University of South Dakota, Vermillion, as a teacher of psychology, but she did not
