Sally’s story focuses on the Lincolns move from Kentucky to Indiana, including their mother’s death and Sally’s ordeal while Mr. Lincoln was absent courting their stepmother. Of specific interest are descriptions of frontier life (contrasted with the readers’ lives) and Sally’s struggle to belong in the new family (similar to modern step- situations).
