"My family was so poor that twelve children had only one toy to share...It was a little wooden car...And it was broken - it only had three wheels...And those wheels were square...Imagine 12 children fighting over a little wooden car that only went "chunk,tah, chunk,tah, chunk,tah" when you tried to push it around... But we never, ever got to play with it when our mother had to tenderize possum or raccoon meat that she was lucky enough to find on the roadside... Afterward it was even a more special treat for us children to lick the little wooden car off..."
