Delightful trip down Dick Van Dike's memories of his childhood. The book is divided into I wouldn't say chapters but each one is a precept for living a long life.

Captivating

Interesting

Interesting. Liberal education should be available to all

I love his picturesque style

Enjoying the imagery.

My spelling is really not that bad. I'm using voice text. That's why the errors.

I might be reading a different addition of this book so the page numbers and percentages would be different. I've read 30 pages of 130 pages and that includes various contents and indexes in the back so there's actually 89 pages of content. So I have read 1/3 of that content.

I don't know how to record this year, but I just finished chapter 1. It's hard to tell what percentage that is. The author tells you how not to be a schmuck. Avoiding risky, activities and lifestyles.

It's so interesting for me to read this argument for liberal education, including the study of the classics

I had read into Ch3, but I decided to start again with chapter 1, so I can complete the exercises, the first of which was to keep a writing journal. So I started one.

Love the book. Sam Walton has many ideals that I would like to copy

Great! I love Sam Walton. Uncomplicated but brilliant! Very likable, a go-getter, unrelenting

Such pretty word pictures

I think she's a teenager....the young lady who opened up the story. She's just come to her grandfather's home, evidently staying with him for a time. Something happened with her mother that she doesn't know but others seem to.

Drawing so far. I'm still trying to figure it out. Engaging details. I'm starting to understand, but there is still so much hanging.
