Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers and The Sky is Crying
Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers Camelia Ledbetter has lived in Fort Walton Beach for over a hundred years across the Sound from Okaloosa Island that she fears more than anything else. Her heart and mind should be filled with rage, but her vigilant faith and determination shield her from the disaster that occurred seventy-five years ago, and the loneliness of her empty bed and a hatred of the war that tore her life apart. The La Mancha may never be the same after the three four-year-old ‘soldiers’ invade it. Their innocence will lead them to the ultimate danger for all three of them, for the psychotic killer is still on ‘campus’ as the Prof calls the place. Twists of fate, both in the war and on Okaloosa Island, create a maze that the boys and Miss Camelia struggle through. The Sky is Crying Miss Camelia Ledbetter’s story ends with Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers, but her Great Grandson, Zathan, has a dream where she tells him that Evil is on its way to Chanticleer Lane, the street where she lived for over a hundred years. Enter, Elmer Carter, his wife Balance, and their daughter, Bunny Jo. Elmer, a conniving schemer and vicious alcoholic, will get what he wants by any means—scams or bloody violence.
Mockingbird
The colorful life of the remarkable woman who created To Kill a Mockingbird—the classic that became a touchstone for generations of Americans To Kill a Mockingbird, the twentieth-century's most widely read American novel, has sold thirty million copies and still sells a million yearly. Yet despite the book's perennial popularity, its creator, Harper Lee has become a somewhat mysterious figure. Now, after years of research, Charles J. Shields has brought to life the warmhearted, high-spirited, and occasionally hardheaded woman who gave us two of American literature's most unforgettable characters—Atticus Finch and his daughter, Scout—and who contributed to the success of her lifelong friend Truman Capote's masterpiece, In Cold Blood. At the center of Shields's lively book is the story of Lee's struggle to create her famous novel. But her life contains many other highlights as well: her girlhood as a tomboy in overalls in tiny Monroeville, Alabama; the murder trial that made her beloved father's reputation and inspired her great work; her journey to Kansas as Capote's ally and research assistant to help report the story of the Clutter murders; the surrogate family she found in New York City. Drawing on six hundred interviews and much new information, Mockingbird is the first book ever written about Harper Lee. Highly entertaining, filled with humor and heart, this is an evocative portrait of a writer, her dream, and the place and people whom she made immortal.
