Ecclesiastes for You and Me - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

John lives in Mont Belvieu, Texas with his wife, daughter, and two grandchildren. One day his granddaughter came home from school unhappy that she had been unable to find a book she wanted to read. After having overloaded his mouth about how he could write a really fun and interesting book, she challenged him to write a novel that was just that. Once the panic subsided, John decided to write a story about what he knew and enjoyed most. The guidance and love good grandparents are able to offer the life of a child. John's book focuses around humor and the gift that each, the grandparent and the grandchild, may enjoy in being a part of one another's life. The book is told in the voice of Steph, the main character. "The most interesting thing about the book from the perspective of the writer," John remarked, "was how much I learned during writing the book about how females feel and communicate. I've been married for forty-seven years and raised two daughters. I had guessed that I had some idea regarding females. Man, was I wrong. If I was going to get Steph's voice right I had to have her talk, think, and feel as a twelve-year-old girl. I was aided and counselled by the best. I had to pay for my counselling sessions with lots of slumber and pizza parties for my granddaughter and her friends, but I think I finally got it right. I am really pleased with how the book turned out. It is a fun read and most any young girl would enjoy walking through its pages."
