"It’s the dust-bowl Depression era, and Billy of rural Saskatchewan is 13. His older brother has already run away and when his parents lose their farm, Billy decides he’s a burden to them and leaves a note that says “Don’t worry.” He embarks on the ad" Read more of this review »
Kid Sterling by Christine Welldon
"It’s the year 1906, and New Orleans is bustling with music, musicians and Honky Tonks. It’s also home to 10 year old boys like Sterling, who would much rather ditch school to play his battered trumpet with pals or with one of the many brass bands tha" Read more of this review »
