The Prairie Child

In The Prairie Child, Arthur Stringer brings a moving close to his prairie trilogy through the voice of Chaddy McKail—a woman shaped by wide skies, quiet heartbreak, and fierce maternal love.

Now a mother of two, Chaddy journals her days on the Canadian frontier, capturing the joys and trials of raising children amid loneliness and hardship. After the devastating loss of her youngest child, and the slow unraveling of her marriage, Chaddy clings to loyalty—determined to keep her family whole.

But through grief, perseverance, and the raw honesty of motherhood, Chaddy begins to see herself more clearly. What once was duty becomes choice. What once was heartache becomes growth.

The Prairie Child is a quiet, powerful story of transformation—of a woman learning that the life she’s built may be more than enough, and that love, when it returns, can take on a gentler, more enduring form.
