<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Slyly funny and heart-warming! Told in the voice of a ten year old boy, this past meets present story celebrates the treasure of written memories.</b> <p/>Long before dads became parents, they were kids. Ever wonder what your dad was really like those many years ago?<b> </b>Sarah and Melissa get their chance to find out. You see. . . many, many, <i>many</i> years ago, ten-year-old Randy Ray lived with his family, in a farmhouse in the country. Life couldn't have been better! Then came that fateful day of the class assignment . . . <i>"Criminy!"</i> At least that's what Randy Ray thought at the time. But then, how could he have known that a class assignment would lead to captured moments in time waiting to be discovered by his future family thirty-seven years later! Join Sarah and Melissa on a family trip to grandma's house and discover a bit of family treasure. <p/>Much of<i> That's How It Was</i> is told through Randy Ray's letter diaries. His adventures and thoughts on people, animals, and faith are the backdrop as he contemplates whimsical and not-so-whimsical career choices. His letters allow his daughters to get to know the boy who became their father, and understand the essence of what it means to grow up country. <p/>So... after homework and chores are done and before suppertime, what happens when a 10-year-old boy is free to explore his world? Read <i>That's How It Was </i>and find out! <p/>A great read at any age, <i>That's How It Was </i>is a multigenerational story of past meets present. Playfully illustrated, it's a funny, light, easy-to-read, nostalgic look at growing up on an American mid-west farm in the 1960s.
