"Frances Schutze welcomes us into a time of hope as the Great Depression lifts, families grow, and new friends are made. Like Tillie Olsen and Muriel Rukeyser, she gives us a glimpse into the overlapping spheres of everyday life. I loved Schutze's voice--droll and sincere--and appreciate that every word she chose allows us to hear a by-gone era once again."  — Ronlyn Domingue, author of the Keeper of Tales Trilogy Great Depression, Reading, The Voice, Author, Droll, Madison, Cruel
