Summary: The Salt Cedars
Comment: A wonderful trip back in time! The author has a marvelous writing style. Her very personal account reminded me of an era simpler in many ways, but more difficult in others. She's so right, that our history will be lost history, except for authors like her.

Summary: The Firey Beautiful Blue Eyes of the Author
Comment: Thirty four years ago, I was sitting in a junior high english class in Dallas, Texas, where I had a tall teacher with piercing blue eyes named Mona D. Sizer. She was on fire. She was not like the rest of the English teachers I had in junior high and high school whose names now escape me. She graded my papers but that was not what I remembered about her. She was excited about story telling and she would often read to us. It was particularly thrilling when one student would write a great line or paragraph. Ms. Sizer would hold the paper and read the paper in an excited and dramatic voice. Her enthusiasm was infectious. I loved her even though she stated my last name meantexport in German.(She could have a wicked, sly wit.) I was therefore not surprised when I picked up this book and found a great story being told about growing up in Texas in the thirties and forties. The book is authentically written and it helps explain to me why Ms. Sizer sent me to the principal's office for looking in her grade book when everyone else had been doing it. (Ha! Were we having a temper tantrum there?) Seriously, I was lucky to grace the principals office only once and blessed to grace Ms. Sizer's classroom all year long. We should all be so fortunate. This is a very well written book, but my opinion is colored by the fact that I had heard my teacher's inspired voice throughout the book. "Nothing great is ever done without enthusiasm." Emerson
