O knihe
Back when Brenda Bond was growing up in the 1950s, life was as simple as Kool-Aid. In Front Porch Sketches, she reminisces about what life was like in Cyrus Creek, a small, rural community near Barboursville, West Virginia.
In this memoir, Bond shares stories from her idyllic childhood-about the close-knit community, her loving family, the joy of country living, the value of church, and the experiences of attending a small school. She tells of the magical summer evenings on her grandparents' front porch, where the family gathered to laugh and visit, and of the grandfather who knew a real witch who put curses on things she couldn't have.
Front Porch Sketches paints a portrait of a simple life in simpler times. It shows that the most important things in life-honesty, hard work, and common sense-cannot be purchased, but can be passed through families, along with their traditions, and their values.
