The child of a small town in Midwest America tells of growing up in Rockbridge in the 1930s. Anecdotes recount childhood exploration, adventures, mishaps, and rebellion with friends, neighbors, and family. My piano teacher lives across the alley while down the alley "Betty Jean had a partially opened pack of Lucky Strike and we proceeded to light up." Winter brings skating on creeks and sledding "until the orange ball of the sun slipped behind the cold watery sky." Alongside these tales are refl ections by the child, revealing and honest. They contrast attitudes of the 1930s with childhood perception.
