- Synopsis
- Since his father's death eleven-year-old Jeff Singleton has helped his older brother with the plowing and harvesting, taking major responsibility to keep the family farm afloat. Things change when his mother remarries and his new stepfather moves the family from Missouri to a farm in Tennessee. Jeff's stepfather worries that Jeff has missed out on having a carefree childhood, and insists he must wait a year or two before he raises a crop of his own. Tensions mount as Jeff tries to prove himself, often with disastrous consequences. Set in 1925, this is a coming-of-age novel with appeal to both young readers and adults.
