Ted, Ed, and Bill Foust were typical, energetic boys growing
up in the rural town of Galena, Kansas during the 1920s.
They loved to have grand adventures in and around the small
town they called home. One day, the boys found and
befriended an unusual pet, a squirrel they affectionately
named Jimmie. This special animal follows the Foust boys on
all of their adventures, bringing immense joy to both the
family and the town. This is the true story of the Foust
boys' childhood, passed down to the author by her father and
two uncles. In addition to the wonderful and exciting
adventures of the boys, this story gives us an insight into
the interrelationships of the people of small towns during a
stressful economic time in American history. This story will
touch the hearts of people of all ages, backgrounds, and
lifestyles. Linda Foust Prieto is currently retired and
living in Rowlett, Texas with her husband of 15 years. She
has eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild who live
with their families in California. Prieto wrote Little
Scavenger in order to pass on the joy she felt listening to
her father's childhood story to the generations to come.
