(Dogs 14)
"This is the ideal time to look for my dog, Daddy. I am sure there are ads in the paper. Just look -- will you please? There aren't any places to get German Shepherds at home. Please?" -- "Skip, honey, those are great big dogs. How can we have such a big dog in the house?" "I'll take care of him, Mother. Only look! Please."
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
