I saw the movie and while I knew it would not be like the book I was hoping for a little more. Coupled with a rather snarky writing style, and you have a book that I quit reading after only a few chapters. The challenges that were over come by the characters as children encourage us all that life is one test after the next.

These memories resulted in the stories collected in The Dark Side of Hopkinsville. After watching Bronco Billy and his black sidekick, Pistol Pete, at the nickel movie on Saturdays, Ted and his friends make Pistol Pete the hero and Bronco Billy the sidekick of their games in "The Werewolf of Woolworth's." In "The Revolt of the Evil Fairies," Ted uses Palmer's Skin Success ("guaranteed to give you a light complexion in just seven days") so that he can play Prince Charming opposite his fair-skinned sweetheart in the school play.Kathleen A. Told from the vantage point of "Ted," a bright, high-spirited student at Booker T. After thirty-five years at the Post, Poston was without question the "Dean of Black Journalists."Acquainted with the major figures of the Harlem Renaissance, Poston regaled his associates with tales of his childhood. Washington Colored Grammar School, the stories focus on a coterie of imaginative children, their entertainments and games, ties to the church, and relations
