My book is a series of short stories about my life as I was growing up. They take place at my grandparent's homes and various other locations I had been to. I want to share this book with others of all age groups young and old alike, individuals who have a love for reading. I also want to have a record of these times in my life to share with my family and friends. Growing up is a special time in one's life, and the memories stay with us forever as we grow old. Sharing those memories with people helps us come together. I have enclosed many of my original oil paintings that I have done over the past years for people to enjoy while reading my book. I hope this book will be an inspiration to others to write down their adventures growing up and maybe even publish them. Enjoy my book!!
