This is one of just three Newberry Honor Books written by Paulsen. It also received three other awards. My guess is it takes place on a farm in the upper Mid-West in the 1930s. As such it lets readers know just how much hard work went into farming back then, as well as the good times. It covers all four seasons and it told from the perspective of the younger of two young brothers who live on a farm with their parents and two elderly uncles.
As with many of Paulsen's books, it's a good read for adults too.
