AMBERGRIS & ARROW HEADS is a book of recollections & stories of what life was like growing up during that unique time in our history, the years of the great Depression & World War II. It's a fun book for those who grew up remembering those times & a book that children grades three through eight have adopted. It gives them a sense of their history & an inside look at what being young in that time was all about. Thousands of children have responded positively to it. Filled with ghost stories, legends, the Fat parade, gathering milkweed to stuff life jackets, AMBERGRIS & ARROWHEADS is about being young in a time when you could speak with a gypsy fortune teller, a German POW, or meet the ice man, who would flash his pick a few times & hand you a sliver of ice to enjoy on a hot day. It's old time radio, penny candy & button boxes, plus hurricanes & other adventures in a small village. The eagerly awaited second volume AND I NEVER LEARNED TO YODEL, will be published in June '95. Audio cassette also available.
