Unusual Grisham
I loved this book, but if you are looking for Grisham's usual lawyer antics, this is not the one for you. It tells a beautiful story of a seven-year-old boy growing up in a small, lowland Arkansas town, where life on the farm was really hard, but also rewarding. The characters are wonderful and the relationships between them and the boy are heartwarming and nicely drawn. There is some violence, but only what is pretty appropriate to the era (the fifties) and the farming community. I particularly loved the insight given into how people in the town looked at the events of the day, how they gossiped, observed their religions, worried about the son in Korea, listened to baseball games on the radio, judged each other one minute, but in the next minute they were there to help.

Surprisingly Compelling and Enjoyable
I am always surprised by the readability of novels written in the early part of the 20th century. The language is somewhat estoteric at times, but that does not seem to matter. The story is compelling and Wharton really knew how to turn a phrase. I was also impressed with her dead-on choices, in terms of when to skip certain periods of time, moving the story along. She also happily refrained from describing in detail some of the most painful (and potentially drawn out) episodes, leaving them to the reader's imagination - much more effective, and, in my opinion, an excellent writing device that more novelists should make use of. I read the book because of my book club and expected to have trouble with it, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
