About Product:
Romance, friendship, brotherly love, love of country ... Love in its many forms is portrayed in this collection of timeless stories by Richard M. Siddoway, author of the best-selling book Twelve Tales of Christmas.
Travel to Miss Heacock's third-grade class and revisit the bittersweet longings of first love. Meet a teenager who expresses his love for his younger brother-his rival on the basketball court-in an unexpected way. Learn about unconditional love from "Brother Percy," a man who makes up for in spirit what he lacks in size. And see how a little help from heaven can make a romance grow.
In the gently nostalgic manner for which he is known, the author effortlessly recaptures the emotions of childhood, young adulthood, and beyond. The characters are vibrant and real, from Clyde Hooper, whose frightening visage masks a deeply sensitive soul, to Roland McArthur, the unlikely hero of a tragic love story, to young Jian Li, who demonstrates true patriotism with one simple gesture. Their stories not only entertain but enlighten in a subtle way, leaving the reader enriched and more appreciative of the many expressions of love.
By turns humorous and tender, this book reaffirms the importance of love and is sure to warm the heart.
