See Rock City: American Storytelling (Paperback)

Winner of Storytelling World Award & NAPPA Gold Award (Storytelling)A winding highway, children fighting in the back seat, parents suggesting diversionary games and holding onto their own hopes and fears for the vacation ahead: it's not an uncommon scene. However, it is Donald Davis's genius that turns a lackluster family vacation into a week to remember. The 1950s-era plastic seat covers were not the only thing to leave a lasting impression. In her spontaneous (and desperate) invention of games like Cow Poker and See Rock City, Mother keeps the rules one step ahead of the back-seat contestants, until one-too-many choruses prompt a detour the family never forgets. School Library Journal wrote, "The narrative moves gently, smoothly, and charmingly with the cadence of a master storyteller. Suitable for YAs who are looking for historical fiction or who have short story assignments, this book is also the perfect accompaniment for sitting in a favorite rocking chair while sipping homemade lemonade."

Descriere

Donald Davis returns to his fictitious Sulpher Springs, North Carolina through the wide eyes of an innocent, forthright narrator: Years later I came to realize that when you come from a long-dammed-up Scots-Irish Gene pool, it is an OK thing to wish for something, but it is not an OK thing to get it.
