Down Home Wisdom:Faith, Freedom, and The Front Porch Way of Life

by Andy Hollifield

This book is intended

to interest children and young adults. I hope it can serve as a tool for

older folks to impart the lessons to young people that many of us

learned growing up, without even realizing how they were shaping our

lives. This isn't only a book of adages and heartwarming stories, but

also a bit of insight into how life was when I was growing up DOWN

HOME.

The stories in this book emphasize issues that are not only

important for children but also for honesty, friendship,

overcoming adversity, and believing in oneself, to name a few. They

also highlight the need to believe in others at any age and thereby

encourage them to always put forth their best effort, regardless of what

they're doing. The stories illustrate that despite our mistakes or

shortcomings, we can rise above circumstances and achieve success.

Success isn't defined by wealth or prestige but by the qualities that

make us who we are.
