<p>Following the stock market crash in 1929, the United States found itself in the throes of the Great Depression. While many people found jobs with newly created social programs, most farmers chose to stay home and work their farms. They were challenged by flood and drought disasters, but few gave up. Instead the depression brought out their thriftiness, faith and ingenuity. Adversities strengthened them, their love of God sustained them, and they had a lot of fun. </p>
<p>Ruth Myer remembers happy times during the Depression. As she states, "My childhood was happy and free from worry, as my life revolved around my mother and father, our pets and farm animals. We had enough food to eat, clothes to wear and a feast of books was available at the local library." Readers young and old will enjoy experiencing the Great Depression as seen through the eyes of a young girl growing up during that time.</p>
