DESCRIPTION:
John grew up on the U.S.-Mexico Border and he tells about the trips into Mexico when he was growing up to visit his grandparents. The little town was about a 40-mile drive into Mexico. He says ". . . The story I tell in this book is about my dad's weekly pilgrimage to visit his parents and the cool December 12th morning when we took a wheelchair to my grandfather. It is a special story for me and worth telling to my children, especially my granddaughter Alina who frequently says, 'Tell me a story!' I hope you enjoy (this book) and reading about the way life used to be . . ." (from the back cover)
