As the New Year dawns, the Ware children—Holland, Jack, Joyce, Mary, and Norman—find themselves on a train to a boarding camp for their ill mother, Mrs. Ware, in Maricopa, Arizona.
Soon their friend Lloyd Sherman, the Little Colonel, joins them in their cozy wigwam home in the desert.
After a harrowing experience being lost in the desert and her first experience of romance with the Ware family’s friend Phil Tremont, the Little Colonel returns to Dixie a braver and stronger young woman in excited anticipation of her experiences still to come.
