Definitely a book for those who enjoy Maeve Binchy's titles. Nice to find someone else who writes of this far away and beautiful country's everyday people.
Ready to book a flight over there to search out this very special bunch.
This son's loving memior of life with his hearing impaired parents is a straight forward and loving tale. Myron writes in such a way that you feel as if you've been transported back to the depression era and are part of Mr. Uhlberg's life.
His description of what is was like to be the mouthpiece for his father and sometimes his mother pulls at your heart strings.
You will so much more appreciate the sense of hearing after you read this.

Dodger history as described by a member of their infamous infield consisting of Cey, Lopez, Russell and Garvey is something every Dodger fan would love. Steve Garvey, the first baseman of this quartet writes of some very special Dodgers and their feelings about baseball, life and of course, Dem Bums.
This moving story of twins who live separate lives due to their father's snap decision was written from a good perspective. VERY glad to have "read" the audio version as I felt a part of this family and the unique story told within those pages.
