Book Description
When you have a father who is often a scoundrel and a devil and mother who is a saint, you need a force that will balance everything out. For Carol Hamby, this force is her housekeeper, Eliza. She brings peace and comfort to young Carol's volatile and unsettling world, which is confined to St. Simons Island off the Georgia coast. Eliza fosters gumption and resilience in the young girl and shows her how to make something out of nothing. Take "monkey titty babies," for example. With just a fuzzy coconut, a flour sack, a couple of crayons, and some imagination, Carol makes her own doll companion to help face the daily challenges of a binge-drinking father and a host of other threats that reside on the island. Hamby's life is wrought with heartbreak and humiliation, yet her mother's genteel way of homemaking and a strong bond of friendship with Eliza allow beauty, fun, and joy to slip into her otherwise uncomfortable childhood. Monkey Titty Babies interweaves a unique setting's local history with a girl's heartfelt, personal story of overcoming every disadvantage to succeed in life.
