The Forgotten World of Fred

A humorous memoir recounting the life of the central character named Fred. The story begins with a traumatic experience in his life as a 5 year-old little African-American child. Even though he is his own worst enemy, eventually, he manages to make it to adulthood. Unusual people and events continually confront him as he progresses toward being an adult. He lived in the shadows of segregation, and insecurity, and his life was a never-ending struggle with one thing or another. The book is based on true events, but the names and some places have been changed to protect the privacy of those involved.

Have you ever wondered why some children do the things they do? This book will answer that question ... at least for Fred.
