CAROLINA GIRL

A Writer’s Beginning

Written by Idella Bodie

Through the years, Idella Bodie has visited many schools to speak with young readers about her books and one of the most popular questions she receives is “What was your life like when you were growing up?” To show “the way things were,” she has gathered memories, not just of her life but the lives of people in her small South Carolina hometown of Ridge Spring.
     An entertaining account of "one writer's beginning."  Re-creating real people and places, Bodie takes the reader back to the 1930s and her childhood on a small South Carolina farm.  Growing up during the Great Depression and World War II is depicted in rich detail with tender simplicity and humor. 

More than a memoir of the author’s coming of age, Carolina Girl, A Writer's Beginning is a blend of history and often painful self-discovery that offers young readers insight and courage in dealing with their own problems.

238 pages.26 Black and white photos. March 1998. Sandlapper.
