520 $aThese 13 short stories were written specifically for new adult readers. Each story is narrated by a fictional character from Appalachia. The words are relatively simple and the texts are printed in large-print type. The book, produced for Kentucky literacy programs, has "choices" as its theme. Each story deals with an important decision the teller has confronted, often involving marriage, family life, or work. Some of the stories are comical, others are sad. Almost all of them are linked in some way to conditions of rural Appalachian poverty. The author uses some Appalachian dialect, including non-standard grammar, to establish her characters. (TES)
