Don’s one and only children’s picture book. It is dedicated to his first two children, Sean and Steven, “before they outgrow it.”
_____There was a card in the package with the truck. Philip’s mother picked it up and read it. She said, “Oh! It’s from your Uncle Fred.”
Philip said, “Who’s he?”
_____“He’s a man who used to be in college with your father. He visited here one time when you were still a baby. I guess you wouldn’t remember him.”
_____“I guess not,” said Philip.
_____He didn’t worry about it. He knew the world was full of people named Uncle This and Aunt That, grown-ups who seemed to know him even though he didn’t know them and who weren’t really his uncles and aunts at all. And every once in a while one of these make-believe uncles or aunts would give Philip a present.
