Tadpole
No Customer Reviews
This is a coming-of-age story set in Western Kansas at the close of the Civil War, a story of the year between when Will McRae's family was killed by the Kiowa and his seventeenth birthday; a tale of fighting Indians and outlaws, of rescuing a family of freed slaves in a winter blizzard, of making a winter cattle drive from Western Kansas to Denver City, and of falling in love, but mostly it is a story of a rapid and harsh transition into manhood. Pa said that when you kill a man, when you take the life of another human being no matter if you have good reason or not, that something changes inside of you and you ain't never the same again. Like when a tadpole starts to grow legs to become a frog. Can't never be a tadpole again, but it don't know what it takes to be a frog.
