Just David
"Just David" by Eleanor H. Porter is a children's novel published in 1916. When young David's reclusive father dies, the violin-playing boy must adapt to village life with adoptive parents, unable to even recall his own last name. Raised in mountain isolation, David knows nothing of sin or sorrow. Through his innocent nature and extraordinary musical gift, he begins to transform the hearts of those around him, healing broken relationships and restoring harmony to the community—while mysteries about his true identity slowly surface.
