Big Dreams in a Small Book

Moe and Molly Skine were exuberant. It was closing day on their new home, and they were chatting with their broker, Ms. Cara Little. Owning a house meant a lot to the Skines’. They came from poor simple backgrounds in the heart of 1950s Pennsylvania and had grown up in the same row of tired old brick row homes. It was there they had met and fallen in love. Affording a house meant that they had to scrimp and save every penny they could. It took almost ten years but they were on the way to accomplish what they had set out to do; ensuring their children had a better childhood and a brighter future than they ever had.
