À propos de cet e-book

We are busy peoplesometimes so busy making a living that we forget to stay connected with those we love. We even forget to make memories.

This was not the case for Marion Mosley, a busy Southern Illinois man who served as farmer, salesman, pastor, fisherman, and father, among other things. He wrote down events he remembered about author Wilda Youngs childhood and insisted that she do the same. The result is Fishhooks in Treetops.

It recalls fishing trips, spelling contests, revival meetings, music lessons, disciplinary actions, racial tension, and tragic accidents.

This memoir shares entertaining events in the life of a Christian family in the fifties and sixties. They illustrate that all families experience joys and sorrows as children grow up. Opportunities for teaching and learning abound!

Join Wilda Young and her father as they connect on this memorable trip. Observe their relationship as they tangle their fishing lines and tangle with each other. See how their remembered events shape character and teach valuable lessons.

Fishhooks in Treetops seeks to inspire you to make connections for your own journey down memory lane.
