Sams writes in an easy to read style. This story is semi-autobiographic about growing up in Depression-era rural Georgia. It is both humorous and sensitive. It tells of growing up in a multi-generational home and of how he learns the lessons of life necessary to come of age. Wonderful book, leaves you want to know more, which he gives you in the follow-on book Whisper of the River. Hard to put down.
