| Sociology, poverty, stereotypes, access to knowledge, and interactions with the working class weave through this memoir. I love the way J.D. Vance reaches out his hand in the introduction and like the Ghost of Christmas Past, shares what is and what can be- to help define what is. Anyone interested in current working class politics will find new insights and unravel old understandings by reading this memoir. The real struggles of communities in Appalachia and beyond are important stories, and would have such impact to contemporary economic discourse. A long overdue conversation. UPDATE: I do not recommend this book after seeing JD's current stance on the world and ideologies that do not match what I thought when he wrote this book. |

Kids and adults will love entering into this fun, imaginative world. Young Humpty Dumpty wants to make friends with a new kid in town, but there is just a few problems.

It is a funny Heart warming story of this famous and very clumsy egg adventures show that he is just like you and me. It all takes place in colorful and fun world where anything is possible.
ReplyDeleteIt makes a great bed time story with characters that kids can relate to and grow to love because the already love them.
