The late, great southern humorist Jerry Clower reached people of all ages with his down-home and delightful philosophy of life. In this moving video, Jerry tells stories about his own experiences growing up in Dixie during the Depression, a product of a broken home, a formula for difficulty if not disaster. Yet his spirit remained unbroken through it all, and your students will be challenged and heartened by Jerry's message of joy and laughter.

Teachers tell us:
"He uses a comical way of telling stories that relate to the way you need to live your life." - Health Teacher/Coach, Arkansas

Student reactions:
"Students enjoyed the 'down-home' humor, but were also quick to pick up on the substance of the man and his message."
