Better a Dinner of Herbs, Byron Herbert Reece

While Danny and his Uncle Edin were leaving the farm they sold. Danny looked back at the house and started to remember things that happened. The only one that the text discussed was one about Danny's grandmother. There was one memory in particular that stuck out and it was him as a baby crying because there wasn't anyone in the house, he walked outside, cried then his grandma came to the house from the field. She dressed him then that was the end of the memory.

I liked this chapter, it really shows what goes through people's minds when they leave something behind. I think that this kind of thing might have happened to Reece and that maybe he put some of the things that happened in his life in this book. I'm suprised that the book hasn't brought the gold piece back up yet, maybe when there is another chapter about Uncle Enid instead of Danny.
