Cottonwood Spring

“Author Gary Slaughter’s previous books Cottonwood Summer and Cottonwood Fall established the identity of the small town of Riverton MI during the mid-1940’s. He’s created in the characters of two 10-year-old boys, Jase and Danny, a vehicle that helps guide readers through the landscape of Riverton during the war years. … Operating with the innocence and resilience of children, the pair always manages to save the day. They also help others in the town find a way to feel grateful despite the many problems and worries that still affect them.”
