A Touch of Splendor: a memoir of a devoted family in a hectic world and a set of irrepressible friends...tingling for adventure!
With poignant and artful storytelling that will touch the heart, A Touch of Splendor is a memoir that wonderfully depicts three young sisters - preacher's daughters each with her own personality - and their neighborhood friend, Leonard Martin - growing up in Las Cruces, New Mexico, in the 1930s and 1940s. Each story will tug at your heartstrings and rekindle warm memories of days gone by. It's like the listener becomes a member of this family through the adventures and misadventures of carefree and trouble-free youth.
Follow gentle Lila Belle, feisty Joyce, and little Jeanne and their exploits and escapades around Las Cruces during the Depression and World War II. You will laugh out loud as Lila tries to keep younger sister Joyce in line, despite Joyce's propensity to say and do the first things that pop into her mischievous and inquisitive brain. Also, the depiction of the Martin family illustrates the empathy children can show for people less well-off and portrays Leonard's strengths instead of weaknesses. That is a tribute to the girls' parents and the values they instilled in their children, who are charming, honest, and forthright - with little tolerance for neighborhood bullies - showing what makes for great friendships and a loving family. This book is an excellent and enjoyable listen.
