Kids I Grew Up With

Back in the days when television was black and white and there were only three channels to watch, the great outdoors were all the playing field a kid needed and imagination was the engine of entertainment.Bobby had a great imagination but he was a lonely nine year old kid who needed a friend. He was the short kid in the neighborhood who loved to play sandlot baseball but was seldom invited. Today however a surprise awaited him. Not only did he get to play ball but he also discovered a best friend in the most unlikeliest place. A friend who would forever change his life.

Being a sixth grader is a tough job. Mix in being bullied and things can get out of control. Wil is a quintessential 98 pound weakling and doesn't know how to handle the situation, but his best friend, Chloey does. Wil heads for the woods and makes his new residence in a tree house he built. Can he hide forever? Will he face the bully? Find out what happens. Bob Jordan was born in 1949 in the midwest. He had a 'Leave It To Beaver' type of childhood. Bob's childhood friends had much to do with his decision to become a writer of books. "I shared the playground with some strange, quirky kids. As I grew older I was never able to leave them behind. Their faces, stories, and laughter hitched a ride into my adult life and have been with me ever since. I had to write about them, they left me no choice!" Bob sums things up this way, "I never grew up, I just got taller."My books are also in audio and are available here: http://www.audible.com/pd/Mysteries-Thrillers/Unfinished-Business-Audiobook/B00BY7MFE2
