A Day in the Sun transports readers back to rural Oklahoma in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Author Norman McGuire shares the experiences he had growing up on his grandparents farm. McGuires story is imbued with colorful characters and true, memorable anecdotes, from early mishaps throwing a tomahawk to getting sprayed by a skunk. McGuires evocative storytelling will allow you to experience the world through adolescent eyes, with all the joy, wonder, and sorrow youth brings. In A Day in the Sun, youll discover a world that now exists only in memories and perhaps find yourself exclaiming, as McGuire did, What a great day God has given to me!
