Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Gramps says that I am a country girl at heart, and that is true. I have lived most of my thirteen years in Baybanks, Kentucky, which is not much more than a caboodle of houses roosting in a green spot alongside the Ohio River."
Industry Reviews
"It's great that the hero on the archetypal quest here is a young woman in search of courage and identity....The storytelling is comic and affectionate, each chapter building to its own dramatic climax. Sal's voice is sometimes lost and lonely, expressing her grief and also her awe for the great country she's traveling through. We recognize that she's been struck physically and emotionally."
New York Times Book Review - Hazel Rochman (05/21/1995)
