Family Vacations & Other Hazards of Growing Up

I really had a wonderful time reading this book. It brought back so many fun memories that I shared with my family. I don't have too much time to read but this book made me find time. I always looked foward to picking it up and reading more of Steves's histerical stories.

What a great book! If you are looking for a FUN!!!!!!!! read then this is it--- to the nth degree. My sides hurt so hard from laughter because Steve White took me back to a simpler time where we got to be kids. His book delves into a part of our past that many of us have either lost, forgotten, or tucked away due to the self-imposed pressures of our adult lives. Here is a chance to recapture those lost years and memories. Yes, those colorful, youthful, antics, and mirth that made the memories of growing up in America stuff to revel in and treasure for a lifetime. This is clearly one of the best books I have read in years and strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to have some fun and rediscover the passion of their youth.

While I was reading this book it brought back so many happy memories in my childhood. I don't know how many times I have repeated a story that is in the book and related it to something in my life. Not only, am I laughing, but the people I tell it to are also. This is a great book for anyone to read because it takes you back to a time when your life was carefree and simple, and your world consisted of the 5 blocks around your home (or as far as your mother would let you ride your bike).

Steve White captures the passions and joys of our childhood that we very often seem to forget. I was contantly reminded of what great adventures I had a kid from reading this book. I am indebted to him for taking me back to the wonderful times in my life-and you will be too.

This book could not come out at a better time in view of the Sept. 11 tragedies. It took me back to the vinyl seats of our family station wagon, aggravating my sisters, and hoping the car top carrier would survive my dad's ineffective knot tying. Steve White reminds us of those golden moments of childhood; that they are still there and still possible. This would be a great book for all ages, especially the young at heart!
