All about a young boy growing up in the depression. He had no father but lived with his mom and a couple of bachlor uncles.
Kind of makes you glad to not have been around during the depression.

Charming novel about a boy growing up in North Carolina during the Great Depression. Sweet without being nauseating. Written in simple language, carefully chosen.

What a lovely book to read, a young boy growing up in the South and what his family of men mean to him and how they form his life. This book put a smile on my face. An easy book to transition into after a heavy read, like sherbet between courses, cleans the palate for more.
