Katri, Girl of the Meadows
Makiba no Shoujo Katri

In 1915, in a quaint village in Southern Finland known as Palki, a remarkable young girl named Katri faced life's challenges with courage. Three years earlier, when she was just six, her mother had traveled to Germany for work. Unfortunately, the onset of the First World War a year ago severed their connection. Katri found herself living with her grandparents in a modest home, and without her mother’s remittances, times were tough. At the tender age of nine, she made a brave decision to help support her household by working on a farm alongside her beloved dog, Abel.
