Giới thiệu về tác giả
I was born in 1940 to good parents who emphasized character building. I had a medical condition which stunts growth, and I’ve lived my adult life in a 4’5′ body. My parents were glad that I had friends and did well in school. I’m grateful for the educational opportunities I’ve had, and also for travel opportunities. I have one younger sister, but I had lots of aunts, uncles and cousins.
