• Fantastic.
  Growing up in Nebraska, small country schoolhouses were still around untill recently. I thought the storytelling writing style of Ivan Doig was fantastic, and he paints a vivid picture of the time through the eyes of a young boy. A great read.

• The Whistling Season
  This is an awesome story and the writing is absolutely amazing. I originally borrowed the book from a friend, and when I finished reading it, I actually went back to the beginning to read it through again. It was just as enjoyable the second time through.

• Highly recommend this book
  What a wonderful book. Doig knows his subject and characters so well that one feels as if it has to be an autobiography, which it isn't.

This intelligent novel,the endearing Milliron family of Motherless boys,and the indefatigable school teacher, Morrie, all come together to make this a book you hate to see come to an end.
