Reviews

[Lori Faulkner · Rating 5 out of 5]

Once again, I am compelled to complement the works of David Melesky. Although I read "I Remember Bethlehem" several years agao, the sentiment of the season brings back memories of this enjoyable read. Meleskly is a brilliant story teller with a laugh-out-loud sense of humor. You are missing out if you haven't read this book recounting nostalgic stories from his childhood in Connecticut's quaint little town of Bethlehem, the "Christmas Town".

This was an interesting collection of the author's childhood memories. Some parts of the book are really funny, especially some of the adventures in school. It was a look back to a simpler time in life and it was an enjoyable read.
