Adventures at Granddad’s House

admin — Wed, 23 Jan 2019 00:38:18 +0000

This book is loosely based on actual life stories of my childhood spending summers in Canyon, TX at my grandparent’s house. I took some liberties in the story telling to make it a little more entertaining but the events that took place are fairly actual. The two main characters are L.D. (myself) and Jaime (my cousin and best friend in life). It takes place during the early 1960’s when kids could roam around a small town on their own without fear of any wrong doing by anyone else. It was a wonderful time to be a kid. We both got into our own mischief and predicaments but all usually ended in a life lesson learned.

This is about a time gone by, when kids did not have computers or cell phones and played outside all day and went fishing and such for entertainment. I truly enjoyed writing these little short stories and reliving those wonderful memories. I hope the readers can immerse themselves into the stories and experience the memories as I did.

Through Talen's Eyes: "Grandma, What is Prayer?" is a profound yet practical story that explains the spiritual discipline of prayer. This book, the second in the Talen series, introduces readers to another grandson, Wade who joins Talen and his grandmother for a day of discovery. As in "A Visit to Grandma's House," the boys enjoy ongoing, rich conversation and fun with their grandmother. When the question of prayer arises, Grandma explains in terms that children and adults can understand and quickly put into practice. The book contains rich illustrations and a reading comprehension section which encourage children to engage multiple senses. Children will listen intently, spy out the special features in the illustrations and enjoy conversation with the adult reader, just as Talen and Wade share with their grandmother, who is blind. This book will quickly become a favorite for children of all ages.

"Through Talen's Eyes: A Visit to Grandma's House" is a delightful story about the fun a little boy and his grandmother have whenever he comes to visit. A unique feature of this story is that the boy's grandmother is blind. This fact, however, never interferes with the games they play and the fun they have. The book identifies and celebrates many ways the grandmother is able to see things through her grandson's eyes as they interact and play together. Talen learns to appreciate his grandmother's insights as well. A reading awareness section is found in the back of the book. This can be used as a reading game that will encourage conversation between the child being read to and the adult reading the book. "Through Talen's Eyes: A Visit to Grandma's House" will delight every child!
