Children of the Great Depression

Honorable Mention Award from Glimmertrain Press! http: //bit.ly/2019MarAprFMhonorablemention. The story of an exceptional woman, and her children. The great depression started in 1929 and lasted more than a decade, tearing a whole in the fabric that had previously held families together, when millions of Americas best workers became unemployed. Julia Aronson's family was no exception. However, she was exceptional. Using all of her experience as an Indiana farm girl, she fought to keep food on the table and a roof over the heads of her six children. When hard times continued for the entire decade of the 1930's, she sometimes felt despair. Her story was awarded Honorable Mention in the annual Family Matters contest at Glimmertrain Press. Four great short stories in one book. The Mike Madden Mystery, "The Crystal Palace." received an honorable mention award from Brookhaven Community College in Dallas, Texas. This book offers one more Mike Madden mystery, "Mayhem in Malvern." And, another historical story about a German, orphan boy's travel to America in 1890. Enjoy!
