Publisher Description: Walk through the childhood days of this Maine native and author reflecting life growing up before technology invaded our lives. The author honors her parents and the engaged lifestyle they gave to her and three sisters living on the family farm in Albany Township, Maine, during the 1940s and 1950s. Outside physical play, interactions with nature, opportunities to "make do," inspiring thought and imagination provided the foundation of youth--missing in today's childhood days. Norma Salway, retired educator, parent, and grandparent, is the author of three other books, The Spirit of Songo, Touched by a Hummingbird, and I'm Just a Kid, You Know Salway and her sister, Dottie Adams also present Vintage Oral History programs and displays featuring their mom's aprons, linens, and clothing. Salway volunteers at The ReStore for Habitat For Humanity and lives in Portland, Maine with her cat, Gusty.
