My book PAPA TOM'S TOAST was inspired by my husband who encouraged me to write about my Dad's everyday ritual of making toast for the past 75 years of their marriage. His plate of toast has become a tradition in our family and a very special treat for all who walk in the door. But most important it is about family, cherished memories, stories to pass down to your family and hold close to your hearts. PAPA TOM'S TOAST is my first children's book, which I hope sparks your interest in reading my book from cover to cover with love and brings you back to some of your childhood memories. I have added some facts about the 1920's and the 1940's for the "kids" who love history and want to further explore. I have also saved some pages for you to draw a picture or write a family memory, even dream of something new.

Make you own traditions and memories!
