Suddenly fire blazed from the smoke at the top of the little building behind the church. We had kept an eye on it for Daddy all morning. “Bobbie! Look!” I yelled. She ran to turn on the water while I made a beeline for Daddy. He hobbled out of the church as fast as he could on his short leg, and squirted water on the roof just as Mama came out the parsonage door. “Yates, I smell smoke,” she yelled. “It’s all right, Dollie. I’m putting out the fire.” Mama hurried over to the little building with the hole burned in the roof. “What have you done, Yates?” Daddy’s eyes twinkled and he grinned at Mama. “Just smoking the sausage.” “In the outhouse? Lord, have mercy, Yates!”

One exciting adventure after another takes place, as you peek at the church parsonage in the 1940’s, and see the human side of preachers and their families. In the first book of the Kidd Family Series - Kidd and Spitfire Doll - you met my family. The Saga continues from a child’s view in Kidd’s Daughter – Another Spitfire. In this book, you’ll see lessons learned about life and eternity, lessons from Kidd and Spitfire Doll. Daddy used to say, “The door’s open. Come on in the house.”

He’s nine and I’m eight when he tells his mother that when we grow up he’s going to marry me. Now he’s dead. All my hopes for the future are gone; buried under a tree in the cemetery plot where his young, broken body lies. With my big ears, stringy hair and nose too large for my face, nobody else will want me. Who would? I’ll just be an old maid like the decrepit looking woman on the cards my sister, Bobbie, and I play. At thirteen things turn around; Boys look my way. Cute boys, some of them . . . At fifteen, Mama catches me kissing one . . . uh oh! And then there’s the terrifying day the man pulls a gun on us . . . Will I survive to become a woman?

The Kidd Family Series’ third book takes us back to the 1950’s. We travel miles facing adventure after adventure along the bumpy road of growing up.

Inside are toys and games we boys and girls played long ago. We had no televisions, computers, I-pads or smart phones. There were no motorized scooters or hover boards. We played Jacks, hide and seek, and red rover. We rode bicycles, learned to skate, and chanted rhymes as we jumped rope by the hour. We gathered on the empty corner lot to play baseball, or on the sidewalk in front of the house for hopscotch. We swung from sack swings, and knelt in the dirt to shoot marbles. Life was simple, and we had lots of fun with our Old Fashioned Games and Toys
