And thanks for your reference to the article in The Tablet - you prompted me to stop by there and it was also a good read. I noticed one of the posters there said that his son Justin's book about his dad is being reviewed on the Book Report radio show this weekend. Surprisingly, even though I've read Sam Halpern's debut, I haven't ever read his son's book about him! I frequently listen to the radio show, so will make a point of catching this one - WOR710 on Sat eve, or you can find out their other station guides on their website -(bookreportradio[dot]com) for others wanting to get the full picture!Fergie Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865574440201600064.post-48643581566106821272013-06-07T20:28:18.840-04:002013-06-07T20:28:18.840-04:00Becky - surprising wasn't it!?

I'm even more interested to know that much of this book comes from his real life experiences. This sounds like such an amazing book! And I love that it has a Stand By Me feel to it! Definitely adding this to the list :)Andrea @ Cozy Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03956494599005857082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865574440201600064.post-12398503332963736062013-06-05T11:37:44.413-04:002013-06-05T11:37:44.413-04:00I'm just fascinated that the author is Justin&...I'm just fascinated that the author is Justin's dad.
