Do you remember the "good old days," or have you heard of them? Throw the rose-colored glasses away, and learn some life lessons in a howl-ariously entertaining manner. While Herb's mother never got around to writing down the stories she raised her kids on, Herb heeded the call to put the stories on paper. Herb deftly weaves together his mother's true stories with his own true stories into tickle-your-fancy parables that teach life lessons while they amuse and delight. Grandparents, parents, and kids will enjoy (at a safe distance ) these adventures in country living and come away with the conclusion that this is truly a serious book written in a humorous manner.
