Description
Thankfully for us, Dot Simpson vividly remembered her early island life and wrote about it with moving simplicity. Her memoir is brightened with dry humor, and it tells of a time long lost but infused with values we still cherish, such as love of home and circle of relatives. Even if this can be a story tinged with considerable disappointment, we will’t assist but wish we can have spent a minimum of a couple of of our own growing-up years alongside Dot, as an island child.
