A heart-wrenching story of a young girl coming of age. Betty was born in 1954, the 6th of eight children. Her dad was Cherokee and her mom was a poor young woman born in Ohio. The tales of her childhood always remain in her heart and mind. Tears were shed, laughter and smiles were shared. There was deep sorrow as well as pain yet, lots of love. Multiple topics rounded out this novel. Certainly one of the best books I have read this year. 5🌟
