How many of us allow our treasured memories of ourselves, our children, and their children to slowly slip away and be forgotten, never having been recorded for future generations?“I decided to give my children and their children slices of our lives in book form, a family heirloom of memories in story form, with a photo or illustration with each story,” says Junebug, the author of this wonderful storybook.Words for the Week represents a compilation of one hundred stories, featuring experiences and relationships of the author’s family and friends, spanning the ages of three months to 73 years old.Each story centers on one word or phrase, which becomes the theme and title of the story, and encourages readers to think about similar events in their own lives.Says the author, “Characters in these stories range from myself and my children from a very young age to adulthood, and friends in various situations in life. The emotional content spans the gamut from hilarious to quite serious and sad. This is a verbal depiction of the actual lives of myself and my children, Denise, Danny, Debi, and Davy, all of whom are now grown and happy with the lives they have chosen and built for themselves.”Junebug began writing these stories while working for her local weekly newspaper. “The idea of a building a book of stories for my children about our lives was then born. After three years, one hundred stories were finally completed.”Now retired, Junebug resides in Tennessee. “This is my first published book. It is intended as an heirloom for my children and grandchildren, and hopefully pure enjoyment, and perhaps some self-analysis, for any others who read it.”Publisher’s website: http://sbprabooks.com/Junebug
