Book excerpt: The biggest Depression in the whole-wide world hanging over the horizon, the nightmare of war a threat from over the waters, the scattering of a family on the death of a good and true father, the harsh working conditions of the hot Texas cotton-patch, the terrors of school-yard bullies for a fatherless kid, so how's a kid coming of age in 1940's Texas going to learn life's lessons and have some fun? Follow these adventures of a young but not-quite wimpy Leon and his red-haired scrappy cousin, Melvin Junior, and discover against the back-drop of adult faults and blunders a lively tale of innocence lost the hard way and true courage earned in the tough comedy of kids growing up country style.
