- Gin Paim (Tulare California)I am very glad we had your book as a mandatory reading in my English 1 class. Not only was it interesting, but it intrigued me in my own families history. I am also a descendent of Okies, my grandparents came from Oklahoma. It made me a little more aware of the trials and tribulations of the journey. I am very glad my ancestors took the journey to California. It was very interesting to read about your story and life ...
- Jeff (Sacramento, CA, USA)An incredible book. I was captured by this story within the first 3 pages! The author’s vivid descriptions of his survival (and ultimately, enrichment of self) through harsh, yet realistic, conditions provides the reader with an extremely personal view of what life was like for many children in California during this time. I highly recommend this book.
