Lots of overalls scenes and I wonder why I haven't found it earlier. A 10 yo farm boy in 1930 North Carolina. Completetly read.
Quite good plot. One complete chapter, where Jim first worked in the field (his dad died in a cotton field). Somehow I expected a bit more and hoped that the boy would getting older throughout the book.
He lives with his mom and her 3 brothers on a farm. New school, new friend, friend becomes ill and visiting his granddad on trail for his dad.
As told many quite good bibs scenes (some more involving men).
Good scenes (page for German hardcover book, seems well translated)
