Germaine and her older sister and brother were left orphans in 1931. In this memoir, Germaine recalls stories of her life on their Kansas farm during the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. They did what they could to survive, which included her being sent to live with others several times during her childhood, and her family being bootleggers. Even though it was a difficult life, Germaine tells stories of a happy life, all with a sense of humor and gratitude.
