Westlake Girl - My Oregon Frontier Childhood

Informationen zum Autor Frieda Wampler is a spirited 97-year-old woman who lives independently (with assistance from nearby family) on a small farm in the rural community of PleasantHill, Oregon, near Eugene. She cherishes memories of Thornton, with whom she shared seventy-three years of marriage, until his death in 2010. They raised two children, Bonnie and Larry. Frieda is also beloved by her three grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, and a three-year-old great-great-grandson. Klappentext This story from the Depression-era Pacific Northwest delivers rich sensory detail, well-drawn characters, an evocative sense of place, thoroughly researched history, and a fresh, strong voice. It's like Little House on the Prairie, except with lots more fish and a pet seal.
