Here's a sample of what I'll teach you inside... "Donna Crick-Oakley walks on six inches of stories every day. She may live on the top floor of a tower block but she still pads her walls and floor with books to shut the real world further out. Or do they only shut her in? Armed with her myths and medieval adventures, Donna sets out to escape her isolation and change her home town to better suit her dreams.THE LESS THAN PERFECT LEGEND OF DONNA CREOSOTE is a modern fairy tale from the inner city, where the mundane Wide Sargasso Sea download epub becomes fantastical and the everyday ethereal, but where living happily ever after is often easier read than done." 'Social historians of the future, seeking material on the life of American boys during the first few decades of the present century will ignore the books of Ralph Moody at their peril...[Moody] has a splendid talent for bringing the ashes of the past into life' - `Chicago Sunday Tribune`. 'A sentimental reminiscence rich in good humor and courage, and in Americana. It is a story simply told of a young man's unself-pitying and successful struggle against what seem the unsurmountable odds of dire poverty and desperate illness' - `New York Herald Tribune Books`. Skinny and suffering from diabetes, Ralph Moody is ordered by a Boston doctor to seek a more healthful climate. Going west again is a delightful prospect. His childhood adventures on a Colorado ranch were described in `Little Britches` and `Man of the Family`, also Bison Books. Now nineteen years old, he strikes out into new territory hustling odd jobs, facing the problem of getting fresh milk and leafy green vegetables. He scrapes around to survive, risking his neck as a stunt rider for a movie company.
