Summary
One of the 10 Best Books of 2007 (New York Times Book Review), Mildred Armstrong Kalish's Little Heathens is a compelling memoir of her hardscrabble life on an Iowa farm during the 1930s. With no electricity or indoor plumbing and with little heat or money on the farm, Mildred learns to find joy in the priceless blessings of life. "This . intelligent memoir . radiates the joy of a vanished way of life." -Booklist
