Me and Jesse - Me and Danny (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Me and Jesse-Me and Danny describes the adventures and misadventures of two ten-year-old boys living in a small town in western Iowa. The stories are told by two best friends, and are spiced with fantasy, wild imaginations, mysteries which take the boredom out of growing up in a small town. A strange character enters the pictures, turning camping, swimming, fishing, and ordinary exploration into mysteries to be solved. The two precocious pre-teens face a ghost, kidnapping gypsies, escaped convicts, and a suspected spy with a suitcase full of surprises. Daytime battles for supremacy in the "town ditch" and nighttime explorations of a cemetery add excitement to fishing and ghost hunting. The questions often resurface: "Who is Rufus?"" and "Is he friend or foe?"

Autor

Larry Sydow is a retired pastor. He received his B.A. Degree from Midland University in Fremont, NE, and his Master of Divinity Degree from Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN. He previously published "Let Them Answer," a book of children's sermons. When he retired, he planned to write a book compiling the best of the devotions he had been writing for almost fifteen years. However, as a Master Gardener, the other writing project on the back burner was a book of the stories medicinal herbs tell.

His writing was interrupted by his first retirement failure by a request that he serve as a nursing home chaplain. During that time, he began writing science fantasy. The first book of the PARALLEL MISSIONS series, "Parallel Mission, the Journey Begins," was published in 2017. He failed retirement a second time when he was asked to fill in for a couple of months for a pastor in Roswell, NM going on medical leave. It was a position that lasted three years, during which he moved to Roswell and continued to write. The results were a continuation of the Parallel Missions Series.

Larry and his wife, Susan, have two children and two grandchildren living in the Seattle, WA area. In 2018 they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Susan is an accomplished quilter. In addition to writing, Larry enjoys music. He sings, plays piano, organ, and guitar. He has written numerous songs for various occasions, including more than 20 "herb songs" illustrating the stories herbs can tell.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Pat Hittle became an artist quite by accident. Studying to become a theater director, she discovered she needed an art course to design her own scenery. She found that she enjoyed it so much that she studied the masters when she lived in Italy. When she returned to the U.S., she found that people wanted to buy her art, so she started entering shows successfully. Thus, she became a professional artist.
