My book is semi-autobiographical, and is called Somewhere on the Mountain. It's based on my experiences growing up as a child in the 1950's. The main character, Thomas, and his younger brother Billy, have a traumatic childhood, what with their mother dying, and their father leaving them in the care of people who abuse and molest them. Finally, when Thomas is ten, and his brother eight, they are placed in a boy's home, which is just as bad as the place they came from, and the abuse goes on. But they have friends there, who in turn, help to make the Home more bearable. The only real saving grace about it, is that in the summer, they move to a camp in the mountains, and they stay there until school begins in the fall. Thomas enjoys the outdoor activities and the picnics.
