Laughing, Loving, and Learning, What We Want Our Grandchildren to Know, written by E. D. Thompson, the author of three Nashville nostalgia books published by Westview Publishing Co., was written with all age groups in mind. Young people should learn many things about which they have no knowledge, as well as many life lessons to be learned. Middle-aged people should enjoy the many stories and be personally inspired with pages laced with humor and love. Older people should enjoy the nostalgia while looking back at their own life lessons. Everyone should enjoy the many autobiographical stories from a writer who has lived more than eight decades through the Great Depression, schooldays, World War II, and served as a teacher, minister of church music, and professional musician through most of his life. He experienced and writes about the Golden Age of Radio, the Golden Age of the Big Bands, and the Golden Age of Television of which he was a part. This book, addressed to his five grandchildren, reveals to them, and hope-fully to all readers, that times together and memories are the rewards of love. The last section of the book, titled "Out of the mouth of babes, " involves more than 130 expressions from his grandchildren when they were young, which will bring to you tears of joy or hysterical laughter.
