5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful memories, Oct 14 2004
Somewhere in a bookcase in my childhood homes sits three tattered, dog-eared books from Bernice Thurman Hunter's "Booky" series. These are delightful, stirring semi-autobiographical tales of growing up in Depression-era Toronto. Hunter writes honestly about the challenges and family dynamics that made this time in her life both heartwrenching and heartwarming. I reread these books dozens of times and plan to purchase them for my nieces. They fostered a love of history that I still carry with me. I loved being a part of Booky's world, and you will, too.
