There is a little wooden house in our town. It has been there for a while. Now, it's Jem's home. Then, it was Doug's home. Eighty years can bring a lot of change to a small town ... but what about the people who live there? Were your grandparents really that different to you? |
What could 7-year-old Doug in 1940 possibly have in common with 8-year-old Jem in 2019?
