Book offering from Stokes County Arts Council

HOUSE OF PETTICOATS"
The Stokes County Arts Council will soon have available Trudy J. Smith's new book, "House of Petticoats" - Funny, romantic, uplifting and at times bringing a touch of sadness, "House of Petticoats" is the true story of the life of Greensboro, North Carolina native, Jessie Huffman. Developed from her personal handwritten journals by the author, it floats sweetly through the everyday adventures of a young girl growing up in the Great Depression years to the romantic remembrances of the beautiful young woman she became who finds and loses her only true love during WWII. She subsequently decides she would never marry or even fall in love again. This book will appeal to those who love Southern history, nostalgia and especially North Carolina stories. It is tastefully rendered to appeal to everyone from young girls to grandparents. If you like such classics as Little House on the Prairie or Walton's Mountain, House of Petticoats will be a title you will give or recommend as a gift with confidence. This paperback book is $14.95 plus sales tax and can be purchased at the Stokes County Arts Council. To reserve your copy of this book, please call the Arts Council at 336-593-8159. -->
