A Boy from Notteroy
A Boy from Notteroy A book of short stories for reading quietly or out loud. The stories are told by a young boy who grew up without a father, on a small island in southern Norway. His stories are about, soccer and swimming and mischief with all his friends. His grandfather was like a father to the boy, who taught him about the world, both good and bad.

He now lives in Montrose, Colorado with his wife, and two dogs. His next book will be stories about his teenage years; his travels and adventures to Africa, Cuba and the Middle East as a Norwegian merchant marine.
