Publisher's Synopsis
Come along on the journey with Lester Dooley, an overly curious 9 year old, whose curiosity will get him into some of the funniest situations imaginable. However, through all the situations Lester encounters, he will find the true meaning of friendship. That is, friendship is based on the association of people you enjoy being around. I know Tuff Luck, do you? Come on in and read. For when you finish, you will say: I KNOW TUFF LUCK TOO! We all have known a Tuff Luck or have been a Tuff Luck ourselves. Growing up as kids, our curiosity has gotten us in some strange and even humorous situations at times. No matter what situations we have encountered as kids or even encounter as adults, one satisfying and redeeming value is the value of friendship. We have all heard at one time or another, the African proverb "It takes a village to raise a child." The value of friendship is within this proverb; the friendship that we received from our parents, our siblings, our neighborhood friends and their parents. Remembering good friends is the reason why this short story was written. Reading this short story will make you stop, if just for a moment, and remember those friends that you have cherished in life.
