Brite and Fair

"Brite and Fair" by Henry A. Shute is a nostalgic story of growing up that's told like a boy's personal diary. We watch Harry Shute experience the kind of summer you never forget, full of fun, friendship, and figuring out how the world works. Harry’s diary lets you see everything through his eyes and from his amusing thoughts on things at church to the everyday fun of fishing. The book shows Harry with his friends, family, and neighbors, giving us a look into what life was like for kids in a small town, dealing with growing up, doing the right thing, and trying to make sense of the confusing rules of being a kid.
