Illustrated by
Susan L. Roth.
Through the voice of a youngster living in Watts, California (and neighbor to sculptor Simon "Uncle Sam" Rodia), Aston gives a child's-eye view of Rodia's construction of the Watts Towers and the realization of a personal dream. Roth's exquisite collages provide a fitting backdrop for the inspiring narrative. A note about Rodia and the towers and instructions for a craft project are appended.
