Description
Long after midnight, in November of 1941, an abused and neglected child is abandoned on a rural highway in eastern North Carolina. Not knowing what else to do, she walks down the road until she stumbles into Dog Lick, a tiny town of 65 people. Dog Lick is a town that exists totally without racism, prejudice or bigotry, and is exactly the right town for the lost girl to wander into.Taken in by a young childless couple, she renames herself "Button" and makes a new life in this tiny community. This episodic novel tells stories from the next 42 years of that child's life. Of her successes and failures; her loves and losses; and the many relationships she develops along the way. She learns of terror and tragedy, as all people must. But she also learns the value of family and friends - two things she never had before walking into the town of Dog Lick in the middle of the night.Ranging from comedic to tragic, from warm and sweet to heart-breakingly sad, Button's life story is one you will not soon forget.
