Millicent and the Day it Rained Buttons, a Mill River Fish Tale
Millicent and the Day it Rained Buttons, a Mill River Fish Tale
By: Nancy Meagher
Why is it raining buttons in the small mill village of Leeds, Massachusetts?
Who is the spotted brook trout unhappy with her spotted brook life?
Meet Millicent, an unhappy fish who finds a Button Girl’s work boot and plaid work dress in the swirling waters of Northampton’s 1874 Mill River Flood, when the ill- designed Williamsburg Dam bursts, washing out the Mill towns below.
With the help of Caroline Bonney and Annie Chamberlain, two real life, “Leeds Mill River Button Company” girls, this fish out of water learns to love the skin she’s in.
