Some readers may even like it better. "--San Francisco Chronicle "Mr. Moody remembers, and can put on paper, the terrifying passion of a small boy's heart, where there is no routine, and every victory and every disappointment is oversize and overwhelming." --New York Herald Tribune "A heart-warming book. . . . Little Britches' fierce loyalty to his mother is matched only by his practical consideration for his brothers and sisters." --Christian Science Monitor
