Dawn's Gentle Light Renee Riva

When an early 1900's manuscript makes its way from revolutionary Russia to a small town in America, a young girl's life begins to change. Clara Bradley moves from the city to a remote farming town in Eastern Washington-with nothing to offer a young cheerleader but miles of snow-covered wheat fields. She now has no cheer team and nothing to cheer about. But that move brings her an unusual neighbor: an elderly Russian woman who has a remarkable story she is translating into English. Clara's love of books draws the two together and she becomes immersed in the lives of two childhood friends, Nina and Pasha, growing up during tumultuous times. Dawn's Gentle Light transcends two Countries, two different time periods, and three hearts in need of friendship, hope, and the goodness of God.
