Cimarron Girl is told from the view point of an adult looking back to childhood during the Dust Bowl. I personally do not think that this book was intended to be funny, but to tell a sad story of our country's past. And even with this, it could still be a children's book.
This book, is written in the eyes of Abigail. She is seven years old when the dust bowl began. She talks about all the hardships her family and neighbors faced. Many people don't really talk about this time, so I feel that it is important that this book is shared with children. It may even teach the children that they have it better than they think.
Thank you Vanita Books and NetGalley for the
digital ARC of this book, which made this honest review possible.
