Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"In this lyrical picture book, an African American mother tells her young daughter about growing up in the rural South in a time long ago.... Bradby tells of the good times with and love in every word, while Soentpiet bathes the remembered scenes in a golden light." - Kirkus Reviews
Momma describes the special people and surroundings of her childhood, in a place where the edge of town met the countryside, in a time when all the children at school were brown.
