Set in the northeastern plains of Colorado, these are coming of age tales about a country boy's life on a hard-scrabble farm in Weldon Valley, Colorado in the 1950's and 1960's. These stories will make you laugh and make you cry, they will surprise and uplift you. Hear the strains of an old Gospel hymn being whistled in the dark, and learn how Larry got the nickname, "The Peanut Butter Kid." You will learn a little about farming and a lot about neighborliness. Most of all, you will read this book from cover to cover, and then read it again.
