Mom’s Books
Going way back...
In the late 60s/early 70s, Mom found herself with 4 boys and not much of an outlet for her artistic bug. She enjoyed painting, sculpting, and writing. (The last of which might be in the genes. Grandpa Berry was the editor of a state-wide newspaper for decades.)
One of her first forays into writing was a series of books she wrote, illustrated, and bound for her young sons. Being the last son to leave the nest and the greediest, I kept the books; making a few sets for family and friends but I've decided I'd like to share this bit of her earliest writing with a larger audience. Enjoy.
Family Conference
The book found here was written by my mother covering our 1979 search to find a place out in the country and ending with the last son (yours, [un]truly) leaving for college summer of 1986. It really happened.
