About this audiobook
“The ending nailed it for me!” - Audiobook reviewer
In the deep South, farming families tell stories about people who, as they are drawing their final breath, see the ghosts of dead loved ones appear to escort them into the next world. This is one of those stories. Told through the eyes of an eight-year-old.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A truly wonderful story. Beautifully written, beautifully told. Highly recommended for anyone from young adult on.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow, a really good story. A slice of life from a time nearly gone even in the timeline of the story. The deep rural south, an old fashioned farmer, a kid, a dog and a great love. Plus some really interesting descriptions of things I know nothing about---like getting a sow to mate! A good story, fast read and very interesting. I enjoyed it very much. I have read quite of bit of this author's work and he never disappoints. He has a number of these short stories about the deep south in the forties and fifties, and I enjoyed them all! Enjoyable narrated, moved at perfect pace, easy to hear and understand.
