The Willoughby Chronicles - Paperback

by Ted Page (Author), Nicholas William Page (Illustrator)

The Willoughby Chronicles is a collection of short nonfiction stories that form a mosaic of the author's lovably bizarre family in the 1960s and 1970s. From being put on a ledge as an infant (saved by the instincts of his lizard brain), to being left at the circus intentionally, to digging a real life Hobbit-hole, to a brother who (surprisingly) turned out not to be the Unabomber, to a thing that happened with a puppy and his mother that the author would rather not talk about, to the final horrific event that put everything in perspective, The Willoughby Chronicles combines hilarity with heart and grace to bring a family--and a time--to life.
