Growing Up Country: Memories of an Iowa Farm Girl

A treat as delicious as oatmeal cookies hot out of the oven - a memoir of a happy childhood.

In charming and memorable vignettes, Carol Bodensteiner captures rural life on a family-owned dairy farm in the middle of America, in the middle of the 20th Century.

In the 1950s, a family could make a good living on 180 acres. It was hard work, but everyone pitched in.

Step back and relish a time simple but not easy, a time innocent yet challenging.

If you grew up in rural America, these stories will trigger your memories and your senses, releasing a wealth of stories of your own.

If the rural Midwest is foreign territory to you, Carol's stories will invite you into a fascinating and disappearing world.

Don't miss this entertaining walk down memory lane.
