Papa's Christmas Stories (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

My wife, Karen and I, (Karen has passed away) had four children and 14 grandchildren. The birth of those grandchildren brought great joy to us and motivated me to create a story upon the birth of the first eight grandchildren, the first in 1986 and the last in 1998. Each chapter lists chronologically the names of these eight grandchildren. One of the stories was created as I was driving one night from a YMCA job interview in Chattanooga, Tennessee to Kokomo, Indiana, where I served as CEO. This book contains Christmas stories I created for children to enjoy. It begins with Santa's dog who gets lost and must be found so he can accompany Santa on his trip. Other unique characters are introduced, the Blue Angel, Miss Frilly Fox, a little boy named Bo who could fly, the walking trees, how snow began, the batmasters Desmo and his brother Rufus, the twin girls I and Y and many more. My grandchildren took great pleasure from reading their stories and I'm hoping to instill imaginative minds in others. Older children will enjoy reading the stories themselves and younger children having them read to them. The stories provide the children with something to think about. Many people said I should put these stories in a book, and so I did!

Autor

Spending 42 years working with children and adults of all ages in multiple YMCAs has provided me a good understanding of what children enjoy. My goal in life was to help people, socially, mentally and spiritually, so I pursued and completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Education. I have a deep appreciation of sports, music, camping, teaching YMCA and church courses. As CEO of many YMCAs, I've read these stories to numerous children in the YMCA day cares throughout the United States. Children liked them and always asked to read more. What motivated me to write this book were the births of my first eight grandchildren and I also wanted to share my book with others. My wife of 54 years passed away in 2015. We had four children, 14 grandchildren, and after her passing, seven great grandchildren. Presently, I am retired and live in Mesa, AZ with my second wife, Elyce.
