"Strawberry Acres" is a charming story by author Grace S. Richmond that follows the Lane family as they relocate from the city to an old farmhouse located "five miles out"[1][3]. The main characters are the four Lane siblings - Max, Sally, Alec, and Robert[3] - who must adapt to their new rural surroundings after leaving their urban life behind.

Richmond is known for creating compassionate characters with strong wills[3], and the Lane family is no exception. As they settle into their new home at Strawberry Acres, the family navigates the challenges and joys of country living.
