Aunt Crete's Emancipation

By: Grace Livingston Hill

Narrated by: Anne Hancock

Aunt Crete has spent a lifetime of toil catering to the needs of her family, especially her waspish sister, Carrie, and social-climbing niece, Louella. When a telegram from a nephew from out west announces his imminent arrival, mother and daughter hasten a trip to the shore to escape the "country cousin" who they are sure will shame them. Aunt Crete is left to welcome him with open arms, and young Donald soon realizes that his loving spinster aunt deserves her own vacation and that his other relatives deserve a comeuppance.

Grace Livingston Hill's update of the Cinderella story features a heroine who lives her life by the Golden Rule and who is justly rewarded.

Lovely story.

I loved the way Aunt Crete's nephew rescued her from her abusive relatives in a very efficient and kind hearted way.

loved it

Great book. the narrator is stupendous! I loved the simple and meaningful purpose of the story.

As only Grace Livingston Hill can

I grew up reading GLH books. She always taught you to love and respect even the unlovely. There is no malice or revenge in the heart of a Christian who's heart is filled with God's love. Everyone should benefit and be enriched from listening to this book. The reader did a superb job.

Delightful

Aunt Crete’s Emancipation is a delightful short story. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing her coming into her well deserved and joyful reward after years of drudgery.

Good book and good job!!:)

I love listening to Grace Livingston Hill books...it would be lovely if they would also record..Patricia, Dawn Of The Morning, and Marcia Schuyler. The reading is well done and much enjoyed! Thank you! :)
