The Real Diary of a Real Boy literally turns back the pages of time. Here you will visit the day-to-day, simple and "amazing" adventures of a boy coming of age during the Great Depression. Seen through the eyes of a boy, a seemingly content world free of creditors, war, and tainted heroes. The good guys were good and the bad guys bad. The American government was on America’s side. The Real Diary of a Real Boy is the honest, uninhibited account of a thirteen- year-old boy’s world where stamp collecting, fort building, pen paling, and getting your first pair of long pants were king. Here is my father, John McAleer’s 1937 diary transcribed word for word. In the handwritten pages of his diary is the boy I knew only as my father. And while this diary chronicles one year of my father’s boyhood, the tales, adventures, and boyhood insights he preserved in block letters, using a no. 2 pencil, could represent the ones lived by any father who came of age during the Great Depression and ultimately a man of the Greatest Generation. The same boys, who, overnight, became men, saved a world from tyranny, and became our fathers.

Excerpt from Elsie Wood: A Story for GirlsHarry was quite a baby, with a bright rosy face, soft fair hair, and tiny white plump hands. Elsie was a kind sister, and many a happy hour she spent in playing with her baby brothers; but she had one great fault, and that was a habit of procrastination.Perhaps some of my young readers may not know what such a long word means, and so I will tell them. There is an old proverb which says, Never put off till to-morrow what can be done to-day,' and this explains exactly what procrastination means.It is delaying or putting off what may or ought to be done immediately.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
