My dad was a storyteller. I listened to his stories all the time. Here is one about playing Chicken with his big sister Bea.

This he wrote down for me, but when he told the story he added more graphic descriptions. I hope you enjoy my reading.

I adapted this story and used it for Charlie in my novel Chicken Charlie’s Year, which I sell and can be found at Sissy’s in Seymour, and on Amazon. In the book, I used Dad’s more colorful telling of the popcorn in his nose issue.
