When Feathers Grow is about the life of a family in the rural South during the Nineteen-Fifties. They lived and worked the family farm where everyone participated. A father and mother provided a solid family foundation for their children to remember the past and prepare for the future. Each one did well and was satisfied with life except one. He was more than curious about his situation in life and made it known that he was not satisfied. It was not until his mother took him by the hand that life for him changed. He was able to reflect on the experience to help him through his journey of life, time and time again. In every difficult situation, he reflects on that day.
