  • Uncle Dave's

    Dave Clarke

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 19, 2018)
    At my age, 74 (as of this date), having a granddaughter is the most precious of all feelings. All Grandparents can identify. I have been very fortunate in my life. Born to amazing parents. Lived in many different cultures. Traveled to many countries (thanks to the US Navy), and, in fact, educated by the Navy in the fine art of Photography. I was never the best photographer, but I always approached each shot with passion. I wanted not only to share what I saw but, also, to convey feelings of the subject and/or scene. This little Black and white booklet is an attempt to share with my grandchildren, my grandnieces & my grandnephews and to all children everywhere. The pages are deliberately designed with lots of blank spaces; the better for the child to draw and for the grandparent to share handwritten notes. I was inspired to do so because of a bit of personal history; a hand-written note from my Mom to me. It is fading now since she passed away many, many years ago. This experience was the impetus to leave spaces on each page, lots of space, to draw and write. Please understand that this is not a work of art. It certainly will not win any literary awards, but that was never the point. The point is simply to create a scratch pad, if you will, that one may interact with a child.
