The Mississippi Preventorium was an institution for sickly, anemic, and underweight children. Now closed, the preventorium housed over three thousand children, including Susan Annah Currie. In this memoir, Currie details her fifteen-month stay at the preventorium, explores the unique and isolating world that she and other children experienced.
