Laugh and reminisce with author, Jacque Gilliam, in her newly released memoir, Things I've Kept.
What was it like to grow up in a small town in the middle of the last century?
"In this wonderful collection of short vignettes Jacque Gilliam has drawn deep indeed from rich coffers of wonderful memories."
Do you remember Happy Days and Andy Griffith Show on TV? Then you might recognize the true 1950s stories about a little girl growing up in a small East Texas town.
Read about the pet nanny goat, the Halloween antics, the spelling bee, and 26 other misadventures of this little girl. Meet Versie and Coach Snider who taught her life lessons.
You will enjoy it and your kids will ask you to read it to them again and again.
In every one of the stories, the author finds something she has kept. Sometimes it is a tangible thing, like a photograph or a trinket; more often it’s a memory that she has chosen to share.
