This book focuses on the lives of several characters in 19th Century America, specifically the life of a young girl named Jess and her grandmother who live in poverty and sell apples on the street.

The author illustrates the struggles of poverty and the effects it has on a person's life, as well as the resilience of the human spirit. This is shown through the characters of Jess, her grandmother, and Philly, who all face challenges but find ways to overcome them.
