Just some cool stuff found online Number One!A Coming of Age novel - For every soul there comes a time when innocence is shed, like a butterfly emerging from its gossamer cocoon; a moment marking our passage through a one-way barrier whereupon we encounter unsheltered the realities of life that must eventually intrude upon childhood. And once untethered, childhood innocence and naiveté are forever inexorably banished. You can't go home again. For some, that moment lasts months, or even years; for others it passes in but an instant. For one teenager, it took six weeks. And a Greyhound bus.Join 26 teens as they travel by bus across America on a voyage of discovery ... and self discovery!Young Adult Fiction.

My Interests

The View Through Tinted Windows follows 26 teens as they travel across North America on a Greyhound bus in the mid 1970s. In the days when 8-tracks, not mp3 players, ruled, growing up was still complicated. Do you know what your parents were really up to in the 70s?
