Really sweet, really funny book for everybody to read.
This book is very funny. The story is about a bigger than life Grandma in rural Illinois during early 1930's and told by her grandson who spent his summers there with his little sister. It's also a wonderful introduction for young readers to the life of rural America during the depression. I enjoyed this book as an adult and did not hesitate to pass it to my 9 year old as well. I actually found the second book, "A Year Down Yonder" first but stopped reading during mid-book to get the first book ("A Long Way from Chicago"). I was enjoying it so much I wanted to read them in order. They are both wonderful and the second book is made richer by reading the first book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great children's book
I have only read A Long Way from Chicago (of the three books I bought) a long time ago, but felt compelled to own it. It is a great story, with vivid characters and out-of-the-box plot. I fell in love with Richard Peck as a writer and wanted to own more of his books. You won't regret reading this author!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
