Jeane, September 9, 2008 (view all comments by Jeane)
About a family living on an isolated homestead in central Florida's scrub wilderness, during the late 1800's. Much of the book is an ode to nature- wildlife and landscape abound in beautiful descriptions. The boy Jody in the story has a pet deer, which poses a serious threat his family's crops when it grows up. Facing what to do about his pet deer is only one of the tough decisions Jody has to make as he grows up. In fact, although the situation about the deer is pivotal in his coming of age, it is really not the focus of this book. More than anything, this is a story about family, relationships and survival.
