What book was this about a girl left alone with younger siblings?

the girl was about 12 or 13 years old, left alone with several younger brothers and sisters, left to care for them. They lived in a cabin in the woods, with a field of lilies or some kind of flowers nearby. There might have been a tv show related to this. Remember reading it in school or at the time that I was in school and if memory serves me right it was 1970s and no doubt out of print now.

Actually, "Homecoming" was the book by Cynthia Voigt where the kids were left behind. "Dicey's Song" was the sequel.





You may also be referring to the Boxcar Children series.
