Omschrijving
Kevin is a young boy curious with the life around him and enjoying the many moments with his family and friends in his hometown of Ilion, New York. Follow Kevin from his ages of 6 through 13 and enjoy the many adventures as he explores his hometown. However, as he is to find out, sometimes there are consequences for this active boy's actions, unexpected consequences not always anticipated by the young boy. Then as the boy grew into a teenager he would leave Ilion, moving to another state and leaving behind all that was familiar - his home, his friends, his school and his young life. All that he has known, soon to be but a memory. As an added bonus, learn about the history of the area he lived, worked and played in - Ilion and the Mohawk Valley of New York. This substantiated history is included within his stories and within their own sections of the book, complete with several photos from the time-period. As the Mid-York library system states - this was the number one book checked out of the Ilion and surrounding community libraries for all of 2022. -- Publishers Weekly/Booklife Reviews
- "This is a clever memoir that recounts not just the author's life, but the history of the town as it changes over time. It is written with an innocence that tickles nostalgia without overindulging."
- "The sum of this book surpasses its individual parts. ...the subject matter is endearing and many of the details will captivate readers."
- "It's collage-like presentation lends a particular charm, channeling the experience of flipping through a shoebox of ephemera in an antique store."
