"A lovely, charming and moving read with deep and penetrating insights into family life. The author has produced in this book an outstanding story of a family in the Great Plains. The reader will enjoy this book due to its charm and simplicity. Jones is able to bring to light many aspects of life through this narrative. He does this through telling the story without trying to be overly emotional or prying into private parts of a person's life. Instead, he stays close to the characters and their interactions, but manages at the same time, to maintain his integrity and remain a professional while still providing a touch of humor. "(American Indians were the first people to occupy the American continent; others such as escaped slaves and free men from Africa and Australia, as well as African-Americans, were later forcibly removed from their former places of residence and made into slave labor.) Highly recommended for college students, high school students, or individuals just learning to write, The Book of Five Short Stories is sure to become a classic in the history of short stories.
