Download or read book Donnie and Jean written by Ph. D. Samuel D. G. Heath and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-08 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donnie and Jean was a time of great transition for our nation, one in which there was no television, and radio and Hollywood were the main sources of both entertainment and news defining what would later be called "The Great Generation." Comic books and the funny papers were war oriented and children were ready to defend America against all invaders; while adults fought the war, children played at war. Donnie and Jean is more than a story of two twelve year old children meeting and beginning to learn what it is to love; they were born into a generation that epitomized the best of what America was during that era when the leaders of America were trusted, when teachers and police were the friends of children. In many ways it was an age of innocence lost and not to be recovered, but recalled here in the story of these two children.

Book excerpt: This is my first poetry book and I want to share it with the world, which for me is about having something I created, not making money or being famous, just having something I can be proud of. I have used writing as a way to express myself from going through hardships, boredom and just being inspired. I don't have a certain style or pattern. My work is random and some of it very personal. I don't expect the next person to understand fully but it's just nice to put something out there, even if only one person gets something good out of it. I plan to always write and hope to publish a couple more books. I appreciate all kinds of people and the gifts they bring into the world. I think mine is words, and it's like an emotion, sometimes you just have to let it out. I want to show myself more and this book is helping me do it.
