Notes

Description
Mattie Rigsbee has as much business keeping a stray dog as she would walking across Egypt, which not so incidentally is the title of her favorite hymn. She is an independent, strong-minded senior citizen who, at seventy-eight, might be slowing down just a bit. When teenage delinquent Wesley Benfield drops in on her life, he is even less likely a companion than the stray dog. But, of course, the dog never tasted her mouth-watering pound cake. Wise and witty, down-home and real, Walking Across Egypt is a book for everyone.
