The Boy From a Town That Isn't Even a Town

 Gordon Braun charms his readers with tales of adventure, adversity and heartache in this "cute, poignant, funny" coming of age memoir. Welcome to Shoreline, a town that isn't even a town. It's 1968-the year a thirteen-year-old paperboy discovers a talent that changes the trajectory of his life. It's the year "the world got smaller; danger suddenly less abstract."
