"Most children wanted new and expensive things or go on vacations to far away lands. But, when it came to me, give me my stick, yesterday’s torn shirt, and Goodwill’s finest jeans, and above all, my siblings. In MY stories, the clothes are not a tattered old rag. Fixing or mending does not need to be done. For every tare and rip and for every stain there was a story. My Brothers, though aggravating, were often the reason for my great adventures. If you can give me your time and have enough patience to listen to a child’s prattle, I can entertain your imagination with one of my stories of the Back 40…" Take a trip into the Back 40 with Tanzie, Tristian, Toby, and Tanner as the four siblings have one of their adventures. This is good for all ages. Enjoy!
