Beschreibung

If you remember Leave It To Beaver or The Wonder Years, you'll remember this book. From the first time you were sent home to "...tell your mother what you did..." to the earliest schoolyard crush and beyond, this family-oriented collection of stories, told through the eyes of a young boy, rediscovers a time when life revolved around parents and grandparents, neighborhood, school and church.

Autor

Robert Layton grew up in small-town America in the 1950s and 1960s, where family influence was strong and Christian values overwhelming. As a child battling illnesses that kept him from the same playground pursuits as other boys his age, he turned to writing, penning his first story at eight years of age. He submitted to Saturday Evening Post and Boy's Life before his thirteenth birthday.He graduated from Washington State University within the allotted four years, managing to avoid both military draft and disinheritance. He remains married to the girl he wed a week after that graduation, and advanced from husband to father to grandfather of ten. During his school years, Layton contributed to and edited several publications and subsequently contributed to trade journals serving the dot.com world of the '70s and '80s. He played several roles in hi-tech sales and marketing organizations before founding his own website business. During those same years, he attended graduate school at the University of Connecticut, served several seasons as youth soccer coach, participated in community governance and, as creative at the workbench as at the keyboard, prototyped many gadgets, toys and tools intended to entertain friends and family.Layton's prior publications range from family history to science fiction to fine art. His work can be found in the Library of Congress, the worldwide LDS library system and many state, local and societal libraries.Having sold his website business at the end of 2012, he now writes full time about topics that amuse him and which he hopes others will find worth reading.
