The Adventures of a Florida Boy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798992492200)

Many of us are in dire need of relief, and sometimes we search for something good-natured, random, and joyous to lift our spirits and put a smile on our faces. This is what The Adventures of a Florida Boy is all about. This short and sweet memoir will make you laugh and feel happy in that stomach-warming way that fond memories tend to inspire.Jim Melvin's boyhood was spent in Florida in the 1960s on an island called Coquina Key. His parents' waterfront home overlooked a large expanse of Tampa Bay. Back then, parts of the island were undeveloped, which left plenty of room for climbing trees, digging forts in the sand, and swimming in shark-infested waters. Some of the things he and his friends did were downright dangerous. But they didn't care. They were the rulers of their domain. Jim wouldn't trade his childhood for anything. In this memoir, readers will discover moments that will awaken their own childhood memories, regardless of where and when they grew up.
