I Grew Up On A Farm , an autobiographical sketch of life on a working farm in Middletown, New York during the 1950s, is written by local author Alan Lewis and illustrated by local artist Bob Fletcher. Alan Lewis brings back memories of a time gone by, before Nintendo, before instant messaging, and before microwave ovens. Uniquely illustrated with black and white photographs expanded to full color drawings, this early reader for ages 4-8 will surely engage readers of all ages.

“Children need to read about a quieter time when nature filled their day, and their feet touched the earth.”

– Judy Martin, Librarian

I Grew Up On A Farm “provides a refreshing approach toward introducing farm life to children and, at the same time, provides a sense of nostalgia to readers of all ages.”

– Mary Margaret Green, Elementary School Librarian
