Harry Danced Divinely: Giffort Street Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780988607668)

There is a myth that the 1950s were a simple time.

Family life on Giffort Street was never simple.

The Whittakers are stunned when their trusted nanny, Meddie, suddenly leaves without giving notice. Meddie always knows everything before everyone else. What does she know that she isn't willing to tell them?

The trouble between Stan and Adele Heussler might have started when Adele backed Stan's car into their house, or it might have started when they bought an antique Queen Anne bedroom set.

Dale Kenway is uncomfortable with the attention the neighbors are giving him after he receives a medal for fighting in the Korean War. They are calling him a hero, but there is a reason he doesn't feel like one.

When George Masterson starts asking questions about a new neighbor, the reactions he gets aren't what he expects.

There are unexpected consequences at the Danahys, where Meghan and her father are fighting over the Vietnam War. Meghan wants her father's help to keep her boyfriend out of the war. Her father is counting on the draft to be rid of him.

And nothing--absolutely nothing--can prepare you for the shocking public lesson that Lillian Levinson teaches her spoiled adult son because she doesn't have a tea bag.

The neighbors reappear from story to story, just like they do in any neighborhood. Settle in on Giffort Street. You won't want to leave!

"Every story a glimpse into a real-life story of a person, a family... engaging enough to read into the wee hours of the morning, this book was a true pleasure and an unexpected find." Mandy S.
