(LifeStory Publishing March 15, 2013)
Twister is a delightful story of a horse born during a tornado and his adventures. The story takes place on and around a mid-1930's era farm in Perry County, Mississippi, and was inspired by childhood memories of the author, John W. Johnston. The book measures 7.5" x 10.5", and is 79 pages with six chapters. The book is recommended for K-5 to 5th grade readers. It is beautifully and generously illustrated by Clayton Thigpen, a MississippiCollege art student. It has large print for easy reading. The author will personally autograph each book purchased, and include an inscription (pertinent information must be provided with the order). Johnston believes "that the development of good reading habits at an early age is the key to better education. This book is not only interesting to children, but also parents and grandparents, who can relate to the adventures of Twister." John W. Johnston, the author, graduated from The University of Southern Mississippi with a B.S. degree in Communications. A Korean War veteran, he served as an Infantry Platoon Leader in the 25th Infantry Division and later as a Public Information Officer (Chief of Radio, Television, and News) at Headquarters of American Forces Far East/8th Army). Johnston is a retired business executive and teaches a Bible-study class at his church in Jackson, MS. He is the father of four, grandfather of nine, and great grandfather of six.
