Summary:

Lou Crandall, a widow with a dozen kids during the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl years, used God's Bible, Webster's Dictionary, and McGuffey's Readers, plus her ingenuity, to create her own form of "spiritual" bailing wire, used to rear her brood from suckling babes to successful adults. Lou's Dirty Dozen, by Ranny Grady, is a saga of childrearing and family ties that will encourage hearty laughter, draw woeful tears, and cause readers to shout in victory as adversity is conquered, heartache is overcome, and each of Lou's Dirty Dozen is strengthened with integrity through the love only a mother can give. Stand up and cheer as Lou Crandall, a remarkable woman, inspires you to be your best...as she did for each one of her Dirty Dozen. Based on the life of the author's mother and grandmother.
