Summary of Ruth Wariner's The Sound of Gravel

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I am the fourth child of my mother, and my father was the thirty-ninth. I grew up in the Mexican countryside town of Colonia LeBaron, founded by my grandfather after he received a vision from God. #2 I loved going to church with my family. I was always late, though, because I was fascinated by my sister’s eyelashes. #3 My mother, who was also the prophet’s wife, spoke at the church about how she was grateful for all the blessings she had received from God. She spoke about her devotion to the cause of polygamy. #4 The farther we got from the center of town, the more spread out the neighborhood became. Our house was on the other side of the reservoir, at the end of a long gravel driveway. A tall barbed-wire fence surrounded my stepfather’s property.
