I grew up in Lapeer county where this story takes place. So as a child I read and loved this book. Now, as an adult I live in teh very house the story takes place in and once again have discovered the magic of this story. There is a biography of the author which contains other short stories about her father which didn't make it into Copper Toed Boots, to anyone who enjoys this book I would also suggest the biography.Note: These are true stories about the author's father. A great way to teach children about life in the late 19th century and get them started reading at an early age. Shad's adventures are fun and the writing is mature enough that adults won't feel talked down to. Enjoy!
Makes an excellent chilhood memory August 31, 1999

I checked this book out of our library so much when I was a little girl. When my son was about 9, I read it to him during our nightly reading sessions. He loved it, too. Inspires imagination.
