If you long for a trip down memory lane when life seemed simpler and kinder, this is the book for you! Perhaps I'm biased--since the author and I are around the same age--but I could clearly identify with her images of The Five and Dime, the corner drugstore, the lazy days of swinging and chatting on the front porch. What I couldn't identify with, but cherished in the telling, was her relationship with her grandparents, from snapping beans to listening to the ticking of an old clock. All my grandparents who lived in another state were either dead by the time I was born or died early in my childhood. Diane White's carefully crafted account of her time spent with Grandma and Grandpa made me both long for what I'd missed while also encouraging me to be the best Grandma I can be to my seven grandchildren. Highly recommended read for all ages!~Eileen Hunkle Rife, author, Masquerade
