A collection of nostalgic essays, poetry and photographs.
Carousel Kisses is a nostalgic collection of short stories, personal essays, and poems about growing up in the late 1950s to early 1960s. It is a look back at what seems like only yesterday to many of us. I am sure that most baby boomers would agree that it was a time like no other. I hope the stories in this book spark some great memories of the past.
I want to share my memories and those of our generation with my children and with my nieces, nephews, cousins, and their children. I hope they will enjoy reading this book and pass the stories on to future generations of our family.
Excerpt
When old friends get together, they're girls again.
I love this book. You will feel your heart open with fondness as Ms. Rehal's stories take you back to Howdy Doody, lemonade stands, amusement parks, summer and family memories. After reading Carousel Kisses, you'll feel refreshed and remember how the world was magic back then.
TRUE STORY. Bella survived an abusive powerbroker father with organized crime ties, a drug-addicted mother and a physically/sexually abusive brother. Shocking & inspirational. When she couldn't cry, she tattooed a crying angel to cry for her.
