Some of our experiences then were amusing, others were frightening, but they were always interesting. This book shares the adventures of a black boy who grew up in a small college town in the American South during that period and who thoroughly enjoyed it. By means of a series of anecdotes, fifty in all, the author chronicles his experiences during that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThose experiences range from being ordered by his second-grade teacher to track down and bring back to school an errant fellow student to being suspended himself in junior high school and enjoying a three-day adventure as a result; from painful and embarrassing attempts to learn to slow dance to encountering in young adulthood a young ex-schoolmarm with an aggressive leg; from efforts to learn Freudian psychology to get girls to playing football for the same reason; from serenading a woman who resembled a bear to being struck by lightning in a tobacco barn--could there be a connection?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead also of the author's never-ending difficulties in meeting the curfew his dad set, and his experiences the night he was locked out. All in all, this book illustrates what a successful, happy childhood is supposed to be all about.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greg Palmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47172426498288,"sku":"2940046388602","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940046388602_p0.jpg?v=1763691370","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940046388602","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
