I read a book nobody else has ever read: The Honest Dollar, by Dorothy Simpson. About a girl who lobstered on the Maine coast and worked very hard. Sounds silly, but probably it was the fact that a girl was the main character and got something in return for her hard work - like supporting her younger siblings.
Maybe that book is why I moved to Maine years later.
I have other examples, but will send titles later.
