Since age 5, it was Joyce Christianson's dream to write a book about her childhood experiences. Her family's remarkable friendship with the Sims was quite simply a story that needed to be told. When failing health derailed that dream, her husband fulfilled her deathbed wish. Eric finished what she started, leaving a lasting legacy for two families, one Black and one white, who forged an unparalleled bond that reshaped racial attitudes in 1960s America.
