Great commuter reading...If you're sitting down and someone else is doing the driving!... Following the seasons of the year, the author re-creates in short vignette, his observations of suburban lifestyle. What's happening with the weeds, driveway, and barbecue,...And anything else pertaining to life under the suburban rainbow. Written in a somewhat "chatty" style, this book can be a small revelation of town living in 1960's America:
IE: In Charcoal Broil (or, Cookouts can be Murder), we join in the battle of the sexes over the barbecue grill and it's directions for use. The ensuing clash between male and female wit proves that some things never change.

A pocket size book just right for toting to appointments.
