A well-written story, crafted with true emotion and courage.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
After reading a few chapters, it's shocking to realize that the captivating cast of characters is taken from the life of author, Betty Vickers. Walkin' the Floor, is a gripping account of young Bettyjean's challenges growing up as the victim of an abusive father and her struggle to adapt to a life of poverty. Applause to Betty Vickers for sharing this incredible, well-written story, crafted with true emotion and courage. Will Eastburn / League of Utah Writers.
