Light in the Closet

Have you ever wondered what babies and toddlers might be able to discern about events going on around them? Have you ever worried that something you did in the presence of a small child may be remembered by him or her? Do you assume that just because you can’t recall much about your childhood, others can’t either? How about their level of understanding.do you assume that because a child doesn’t ask a question, or talk about a particular situation, he or she doesn’t understand or isn’t ready to receive that knowledge? Be careful what you say and do, because you may have a surprise when that child grows up. Light in the Closet is the true story of a girl growing up in the 1940’s and 1950’s, and her observation of the times and experiences she had. Seeing life through the eyes of a child is enjoyable reading for any age. Baby boomers and their parents’ generation will revisit memories from their childhoods, while younger generations will find humor in the naïveté of the country people and the innocence of the children. Light in the Closet is filled with drama, tragedy, tradition, humor and the shocking discovery a little girl makes, as she wanders through life in a small, Midwest farm community.
