A joy to read

A delightful book. You don't have to have grown up in small town Iowa in the 1960's to enjoy the authors many humorous tales, but it helps! It has been a while since I have chuckled this much over the printed page.

Memory Lane

Reading this book was like taking a trip down memory lane. Whether you grew up in the midwest or not, I'll bet you'll be able to relate to the author's stories and remember many of your own. Be sure to share this one with your kids. Highly recommended.

Everything is True Except the Part I Made Up

I couldn't put this book down once I started reading it. I laughed until I cried. The humor is so real and unselfconscious. It made me feel great just to read this book and think of a time when things were innocent, really fun, and a little crazy.

It's all good even the made up parts!

From the moment I started reading this book I couldn't put it down. Once I was about three chapters into the book I felt like I was one of Freddy Kopp's chums. I would recomend this book to anyone!Hopefully we can look foreward to more of the life and times of F.P.Kopp in the future!

Taking a Fun Trip Down Memory Lane

This book is hilarious! Beware, you may find yourself laughing out loud. Any person educated in a Catholic school in the 50's or 60's will be able to relate to these stories. It is easy reading and a hard book to put down.
