Witte, Peter H.This collection of stories is about the experience of raising young children, the minds of children, and inheritance. These connected stories explore the wild and the mundane, the joyful and sad, the confusing and obvious, the bizarre and yet altogether familiar experiences that make up family life, both today and yesterday. Narrated by a father of two young children, most of the individual pieces are very short stories, but there are also stories packaged in a variety of other forms, including bedtime tales and numerous dialogue-only fragments.enThesisCreative writing
