Description

In the vein of Bill Bryson's The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, with a dash of some of the homegrown nostalgia of The Dangerous Book for Boys and A Prairie Home Companion, humorist Philip Gulley (Front Porch Tales, Home to Harmony) tells of his coming of age in small-town Indiana.

What happens when your childhood is one of unrelieved and happy chaos?

Coming of Age: Navigate a sixth-grade crush on the unforgettable Miss Huddleston, disastrous family camping trips, and the legendary Blizzard of '78.
Small Town Life: Explore Danville, Indiana--a town with a mouse factory, a haunted railroad bridge, and a police dog that only responds to German.
Childhood Adventures: Join in on dubious schemes, from an epic (and failed) Halloween candy marathon to launching tomato "grenades" from a Laundromat roof.
1970s Nostalgia: A world of Schwinn ten-speeds, questionable government jobs picking up dead fish, and trying to figure out girls during a showing of Battle for the Planet of the Apes.
