Where Angels Roost

It is the spring of 1932 during the Great Depression. Jonathon Jackson’s mother can’t afford to keep him in Dallas, and as a puny twelve-year-old kid, he can’t get a job. She buys him a Continental Bus ticket and sends him to East Texas to live with her parents. Through the voice of Jonathon “Sonny” Jackson, this story captures the bond between a boy and his family, a boy and his horse, and the innocence of adolescent love.
