From School Library Journal:
Grade 2-6-- Similar in style and format to the poet's Long Ago in Oregon (HarperCollins, 1987), this collection of 16 poems evokes small-town and family life at the turn of the century. Whereas the earlier book talked about actual historical events, this one deals with more universal themes. Were it not for the gentle black-and-white pencil drawings full of details of life in an earlier time, many of these poems could be about modern childhood. The excitement of new babies and vacations, the guilt caused when one's casual cruelty and irresponsibility have hurt others, and the realization that others may have suffered--these feelings of a sensitive child are poignantly captured here. This book can be used for social studies units about life in another time, but will also help children understand that others have experienced the emotions that they feel. --Barbara Chatton, College of Education, University of Wyoming, Laramie
