The characters come at you thick and fast...Dorothy, prodigous pie- baker, supremely likable and conscientious neighbor and hostess of a wildly popular daily radio program; Minnie Oarman the generously fleshed and bighearted lead singer (barietone)of the Oatman Family Gospel Singers; Beatrice,the Little Blind songbird, who appears regularly on the Neighbor Dorothy program untiil she is swept away by the Oatmans; prickly Aunt Elnor who owns a series of orange cats all named Sonny. Glaggs's inventiveness never losses its energy.
