Let's go back in time not so very long ago, although it might sound like the dark ages to some. A time before the existence of cell phones, computers, video games, microwaves, and remote control-anything; when a tweet was a sound made by a bird and a mouse was a small furry animal with a long tail. It is there we'll find a place in the country where people know and help out their neighbors and kids play outdoors at every opportunity. Comic books, corny jokes, cars with tail fins, rock & roll, and roller skates rule. It's 1959 on Apple Tree Lane.Come along and meet people like the Dog Sisters, the M&M's, and nine-year-old Gracie, a big dreamer, which is no surprise with the problems she has to deal with at home. Enjoy one of Mrs. Honey Pie's delicious cookies, help little Sam stay out of trouble, laugh with Big Jim, and go to the seashore with Aunt Nells. Get to know these folks and others while you play in the treehouse or Apple Tree Field, swim in the swimming hole, watch fireworks on the beach and go bonfire sledding when it snows. You won't miss your computer or your cell phone a bit. You'll be much too busy having fun on Apple Tree Lane!(A portion of the proceeds of the sale of this book will be donated to mystuffbags.org, a charitable organization helping children in need.)
