What is the theme of this passage? Passage
Susan, Theodore, and their grown son, Abraham, suddenly stopped talking. The three of them sat around the small, wobbly table looking sadly into their hands. There was nothing they could do to keep the bank from taking their land. Their crops had dried up and blown away, whirling their life's savings into the dry, hot sky.
Susan stood, put her cracked fingers over her mouth, and walked around the bare kitchen. She wasn't done fighting yet — she just needed something to inspire her. Something to give her hope.
A golden glint shining from across the yard in the barn caught her eye. She squinted, forcing the glare into a diamond-shaped fuzziness between her eyelids. There was something there.
"Theodore, Abraham, I've figured it out. I know how we'll save the farm. Put your hats on and meet me in the barn," Susan ordered as she slipped her feet into her boots.
