In the book SeedFolks by Paul Fleischman I just finished reading a chapter about Virgil. Virgil has a dad who is a cab driver. For Virgil, it is summer time which means no school! But, before it was bright out her dad shook her shoulder and told her to help him plant. The dad one day when he was driving people home asked how to become rich? He decided to plant lettuce but it was summer so the lettuce dried up and in Virgil said her dad looked like he was about to cry.
