Funny, poignant and sometimes silly stories of growing up as a poor, gifted child in 1960s Michigan are found in Reading Encyclopedias. True experiences of a flying snake, a moose in a pickup truck, living through a tornado and being beaten up by a girl all taught important life lessons to the author. This book was his legacy project for his children and it is now available to the public. Each chapter is a short story that inspires and entertains. The progression of chapters provides the chain of experiences that shaped the personality of the author in his youth. As you read, you will find yourself in touch with your own life lessons.
