I don’t know why we should expect our sports heroes to be all-round wonderful people. BTW, CvilleWords readers might be interested to know that Mr. West will be appearing at the 2012 Festival of the Book at a ticketed event: http://vabook.org/index.html/.

People, people who are not interested in sports at all and it is not a sports book per se anyway, have spoken out about Jerry West’s courage in writing about the things he writes about–childhood abuse and a lifelong battle with depression,among other things.

The NYT review was far more an ugly, vicious, hideously unfair diatribe than it was any sort of review.

I’ve been teaching for 33 years and these books are SO valuable as they teach children God’s commands and life lessons on the children’s level. I love telling these stories over and over, always a new lesson to learn! These stories are applicable in real life. My husband and I actually purchased these books from a door-to-door salesman back in 1978. They are a blessing to have and to learn from no matter what your age!

It was Grandma’s when she was little! There is no cover but I could see a tiny bit of lettering on the binding that said Unc and Arth and Bedtime. I looked on the net for Uncle Arthur’s Bedtime Stories and here I am and I cannot believe there are so many of YOU out there that enjoyed ‘my’ book from when I was a kid that my mom passed on to me! The one I have has a picture of the Canada/US archway close to my house (pg 333 Frontiers of Peace) I warned my 7 yr old that some of the stories will seem out dated (spankings) but I am super excited to share this with her! I just wish I knew what yr this book is from. The first story seems to be The house that glowed.
