A collection of humorous, endearing, and sometimes tear-inducing real-life stories told in a way only Louis Romano can. From his young boy stomping grounds in the Bronx, we get real insight as to how the world, such as the Kennedy assassination, was seen through a child’s eyes. We follow Louis on his schoolyard adventures and methods of survival of a rough neighborhood, and the wit he showed even at such a young age. Pranks, humor, and keen views of life all around him make this an enjoyable book for anyone who grew up in a city, or in the 1950s when life was radically different from today.
