A remarkable novel about one of the most important, and loving, relationships in Gary Paulsen’s life.
The wonderful grandmother seen through the eyes of a young boy in The Cookcamp reaches out to him at 14, offering him a haven from his harsh and painful family life. She arranges a summer job for him on the farm where she is a cook for Gunnar and Olaf, elderly brothers. Farm life offers the camaraderie and routine of hard work, good food, peaceful evenings spent making music together, even learning to dance. Life with Alicia gives the boy strength and faith in himself, drawing him away from the edge and into the center of life.

    Alida’s song is a great book with heart. It is about this boy and his grandmother. When the boy was four his grandmother Alida took care of him. The boys parents were often drunk and cared a tad for their son. He worked every day and night, he found himself lonely. One summer his grandmother is cooking for two male farmers, that need a young boys help on their farm. The boy gets to have great experiences with his grandma. Read the book to find more out.
