THE POETRY OF RUTH KIBLER PECK has won dozens of national, state, and local awards. She is also co-author of a creative writing series for Loyola University Press, and she wrote the history of Trinity Lutheran Church in Dayton to commemorate its 100th anniversary. Ruth Ann holds bachelor's and master's degrees from Wright State University, and she taught junior high English for 21 years. She is past-president of the Ohio Council of Teachers of English Language Arts and was named one of Ohio's Top Ten Teachers in 1990. Ruth Ann married her high school sweetheart, and they have five grown children and eight grandchildren. Among her many activities, Ruth Ann is a devoted worker in her church, a 15-year docent at The Dayton Art Institute, and a prize-winning quilter. The Pecks live in Dayton, Ohio.
This is the true story of the author's life as a young teen living in bustling Dayton, Ohio, during World War II. As the Great Depression ends and World War II beings, the Kibler family finds their lives drastically challenged by her father's meager white-collar salary, by life in a miserable trailer camp, by devastating fire, and by her mother's near-death illness. Yet, the family, like all Americans of that era, willingly sacrifices in every way possible to help the war effort. Father and daughter follow news of every battle and locate places on their world map. Ruth Ann finds joy in new friends, the beauty of Island Park, and in being a teenager.
