Produktbeschreibung
Stories of a fictionalized 1960s childhood, as if Judy Blume had written Little House on the Prairie. Nellie and her family and friends navigate various childhood dilemmas full of nostalgic lingo through conflicts as simple as a missing marble and as complex as the loyalty of friendships. A favorite pet, a first dance - it's all here. It even has a fictional episode of the Wallace & Ladmo TV show! These stories will entertain and ring true to anyone coming of age in the late '60s/ early '70s, with humor and thoughtfulness. Located in Tempe, Arizona, where the author was raised - a small town at the time with only two high schools, a place she could bike across in an afternoon.
