    You'll Laugh and You'll Cry

    These short slice-of-life stories will make you laugh and cry. Each features a different person who frequents Lakeview Park. Every story is unique, yet familiar. Alex and George made me cry. Alice made me laugh. Others made me think. All are well-written treats you'll savor.
