The Rhyme and Rhythm of Childhood

By Joyce Story

Inspired by childhood memories shared with the author by three generations of North Florida family and friends, the imaginative recreations in this collection offer something for young and old alike. Readers of all ages respond to the subtle rhyme and pleasing rhythm of the stories. The dual perspective of the child's understanding and the adult's awareness ensures that there is a voice that speaks to each of them. Readers are invited to undertake such adventures as escaping the jaws of a wild animal, unexpectedly finding one's inner voice, overcoming paralyzing fears, cleverly putting wits to use, puzzling over a mystery, or delighting in a day that ultimately turns out just right. The experiences that underlie these stories are meaningful for everyone. (Ages 10 to adult; younger children will enjoy having the stories read to them).
