Little Tom and Fats Alvan L. Mitchell

This book, written so lovingly by Alvan Mitchell, recounts what it was like to grow up in small-town Oklahoma during the 1920s. Specifically, it reconstructs the activities of Little Tom, or Thomas E. Berry, and Fats, that is Alvan Mitchell, during the golden days of their youth in Ripley, Oklahoma. Now a classic for residents of Payne County, Oklahoma, this delightful book will entertain, amuse, and take the reader back to a time when life held great adventures for young boys.
