"Critter is a hobo with some regrets just looking for a place to crash and to score some whiskey. He becomes friends with a couple little kids and runs into an old friend during this story. This is not for little kids. I really liked the illustrations"

"I'm surprised by all the negative reviews this has, I found it to be quite charming. Maybe the characters weren't all "likeable" but they were realistic. I guess if vignettes aren't your thing I could see finding this "disjointed" but it came togethe"

“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.”

“The best teachers have showed me that things have to be done bit by bit. Nothing that means anything happens quickly--we only think it does. The motion of drawing back a bow and sending an arrow straight into a target takes only a split second, but it is a skill many years in the making. So it is with a life, anyone's life. I may list things that might be described as my accomplishments in these few pages, but they are only shadows of the larger truth, fragments separated from the whole cycle of becoming. And if I can tell an old-time story now about a man who is walking about, waudjoset ndatlokugan, a forest lodge man, alesakamigwi udlagwedewugan, it is because I spent many years walking about myself, listening to voices that came not just from the people but from animals and trees and stones.”

“We have fought hard and long for integration, as I believe we should have, and I know that we will win. But I've come to believe we're integrating into a burning house.
I'm afraid that America may be losing what moral vision she may have had …. And I'm afraid that even as we integrate, we are walking into a place that does not understand that this nation needs to be deeply concerned with the plight of the poor and disenfranchised. Until we commit ourselves to ensuring that the underclass is given justice and opportunity, we will continue to perpetuate the anger and violence that tears at the soul of this nation.”
