The thirty linked vignettes provide a nostalgic look at a bygone era. The book is for the young or young at heart who delight in memories of pets, pranks, and a day free to roam and who can identify with a teen longing to mature and move on. Some of the vignettes are whimsical and short, with effort in crafting as with a poem; others are longer, with a narrative tension. The vignettes proceed chronologically and culminate with the narrator's boarding the train for college.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is a writing activities page for those who wish to use this book in a classroom setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHELEN HOUSTON has bachelor's of art and master's of education degrees from The University of Texas at Austin and many years' experience as a high school English teacher and freelance writer\/reviewer of literature textbooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.22 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 22, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53344157630771,"sku":"9781622880638","price":30.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/WrnmXmUueR9781622880638.webp?v=1778718799","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/summer-necklace-ephemera-of-a-piney-woods-childhood-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
