Comedic anecdotal collection This collection of Mr. Stivender's memories from his first year in Catholic school all the way up to his prom was very funny. I have never been to a parochial school myself but from what my father has told me about his memories these stories give a taste of what Catholic schools were like in the 1950's but in a hilarious manner.
Catholic School students from the 1950's MUST READ! By A Customer As a graduate of "Holy Cross" where Stivender went to school I could clearly relate to every word in this book. His story telling talents certainly entertained this reader actually listener I got the book on tape and listened on a recent car trip. Stivender certainly has a way with words and the events that he experienced and recollects can be clearly imagined and remembered by anyone who entered a Catholic grade school at that time. Unfortunately our own children of the next generation will not be able to share these experiences. I laughed for 2 hours and then laughed again as I listened to the book a second time with my 18 and 20 year olds! They too enjoyed every word. If by chance Stivender reads this review I "was" Kathi Reiner and my feelings were hurt only teasing that you did not mention me in your trip down memory lane.
