Synopsis
Well-known author John Smith tells stories of his 1940s childhood as well as tales of parenting his own children., If you like good stories, you'll like this book. So sit back...relax... and let one of America's best storytellers take you back in time. Stories of times gone by instill in us a consciousness of who we are and where we've been. They give us a sense of history, and they help us understand the link that connects the past with the future. In this charming book, author John William Smith shares a collection of short stories that go beyond the telling of a tale-they impart gentle lessons on life and offer inspiration for grander living. You'll laugh as you read the story of "Gertrude" the resurrected duck. You'll feel the dull ache of guilt and the soothing balm of forgiveness in the tale of "The Neighborhood Moochers." And you'll become a better person as you learn a lesson of integrity in a grocery-store parking lot. Book jacket.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
