The Bells on Finland Street

This book was originally published in 1950 and was Lyn Cook's first book. The story takes place in Northern Ontario during the early years of nickle mining and the large migration of Europeans looking for jobs in the mines.

Elin has a dream — she wants to be the most wonderful figure skater in the world. Her family is unable to afford skates or lessons and Elin must find a way to earn the money she needs. But when something terrible happens, Elin sacrifices her savings. Will she ever achieve her dream?
