This short novel is loosely based on the lives of six actual children growing up during the summer of '62 in a small southern town. An edited version of this book is now included as Part 1 in the recently published,"The Rascals of Stafford Street:The Neighbor We Never Knew." The story is mostly a comedy wrapped around a thread of darkness which the kids attempt to unravel. The rascals, (myself, two sisters and two cousins, and my best friend), embrace humor every step of the way and savor each hour as a life and death mystery unfolds in their midst. More than anything, the story re-creates a unique place and time which no longer exists except in the collective mind of those of us who were blessed to enjoy such real togetherness and never ending laughter.
