Sobre IBD

Set in the 1950s in the hills of Bradford, Pennsylvania, It’s A Girl! weaves together the delights and heartaches a girl faces in the family and the town where she grew up. Reading It’s A Girl! will take you back to lingering, tender-hearted memories that everyone knows in childhood. But in Bradford, Pennsylvania, the stories seem to never fade. Is it because Bradford was such a rich town? Oil was discovered in the 1870s but oil derricks were still in back yards in the 1950s. The rich oil producers seemed to give the town a glow and in this glow the trees seemed to be greener and the sky a brighter blue. The ever-present derricks and oil men almost altered a child’s understanding of the world.
