Read from August 27 to September 08, 2012 — I own a copy

I don't think there's a child born in the '50's, especially those of us who were born and raised in the Midwest, who could fail to identify with this book, from the blissful ignorance and gosh darn cheerfulness of our impending atomic doom, right up to, oh well, don't want to give away too many spoilers here.

A fantastic slow walk through our childhood, where indeed anything was possible and likely probable to happen.
