Publisher's Synopsis
HAPPINESS IS A WARM FAMILY. . . "Rating on a scale from 1 to 10, my childhood was an 11." So begins this uplifting memoir about three sisters growing up in tiny Maybrook, New York, during the 1950s and 1960s, told by the sister who remembers it well. These real-life stories remind one of Little House on the Prairie, reassuring us that there have been happy childhoods in America. Written in response to a dire medical prognosis that turned out to be wrong, Kathy notes that if she could have anything in the world, it would be to relive that childhood, changing nothing except to get to know her family even better.
