Description: "How old are you right now? What is your fondest memory of your childhood? What is the best time you ever had in your life? Stay with that thought for a few moments. Lose yourself in reminiscing. Stop! Come back now! That jolt back to reality is how it feels when you find yourself in your mid-sixties, wondering, "Where has time gone?" You don't feel old; you don't look old; so you must not be old. The only thing different, as far as you can see, is that everyone else is younger and people expose everything they do. That makes you, even the more, wish that things, people, could experience your own childhood memories. That's why I wrote this book. I can't take people back four decades ago, but I can bring those times to the people through my stories."--Page 4 of cover.
