Stuart's characters, Did Hargis and Sparkie Sparks, are not unlike Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. In presenting their story, Stuart affectionately portrays the people of the Plum Grove Hills with the humor, sadness, excitement, and simple pleasures of their lives. He clearly recalls the energy and vigor of his own youth in this novel, and combines it with his intimate knowledge of hill life and his deep love for the people of his native Kentucky hills. The result is a story for young and old alike.
