Description

A collection of interconnected short stories, or a novel in stories, that chronicles the annual summer visits of two siblings, Joey and Mary Alice, to their grandmother, Grandma Dowdel, in rural Illinois during the 1920s and 1930s. The stories, told from the perspective of the older Joey, are both humorous and poignant, capturing the spirit of a small town and a bygone era.
