"PG-rated autobiography of a young man's coming-of-age in a black Baltimore ghetto. Journalist Wickham ( USA Today, Gannett News Service) was orphaned in 1954 at the age of eight when his father shot his wife to death before turning the gun on himself … Woodholme constitutes a good argument for the effectiveness of the black community's ``extended family,'' in which neighbors and teachers assume the role of absent parents.
