Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Freddy, Phil and Don are three grumpy old men, travelling at various speeds in the slow lane of retirement, at a loss to understand the mad modern world around them. Their chosen method of escape from all this is a shared weekly hike in the Peak District, come gale, hail, snow or torrential rain. They pass the time bumping into colourful and eccentric locals, but their real passion is bickering among themselves. Not only about the right path to take, but also about where they're all going at the fag end of life. Phil likes to dash up hills trying to beat his personal best, while Freddy plots how to sabotage him - teasing him at leisure and asking deep and difficult questions. Stuck in the middle, Don's only ambition is to stop the squabbling getting out of hand long enough to find a nice pub for lunch. As warm as the wind is cold, as dry as the lashing rain is wet, The Hike is a hilarious tale of bum-warmers, crayfish-fanciers, East German Trabant enthusiasts, bodger philosophers, sticky ginger cake, gorgeous countryside and the subtle art of 'onedownmanship'.

Neighbors to Family
Author: Dr. S. June E. Kennedy
Publisher: TEACH Services, Inc.
ISBN: 1479614300
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Nine-year-old Freddy is thrilled to find that the new neighbors have a son his age; after years as an only child, he finally has a brother and companion in Jeremy. The two become inseparable, growing more and more involved in each other’s lives. At the invitation of his new friend, Jeremy begins to enjoy fun and exciting church activities, and the two realize that God is bringing them closer together. Jeremy experiences a new kind of love and acceptance in Freddy’s church community, and the resulting changes in his life have a surprising effect on the lives of those around him. After Dr. June Kennedy had served as a co-author on a number of her husband’s books, her family encouraged her to find her own voice through writing down the stories she had been telling over the years. In creating her characters and shaping her narrative, she drew on a wealth of experience in teaching, family work, and church ministry. The result is this delightful story of friendship and sharing. Dr. Kennedy shows that God can use you to bring about healing and transformation in individuals, families, and even entire communities when faith is part of your everyday life. “It is a practical demonstration of how even a child can lead their parents and neighbors to know Christ.” ~ Sonia Rodney-Williams EdD, Retired Special Educator, Medical Missionary
