Bradbury Ray Dandelion Wine
The summer of '28 was a vintag season for a growing boy. A summer of green apple trees, mowed lawns, and new sneakers.

A magical, timeless summer in the life of a twelve-year-old boy named Douglas Spaulding--remembered forever by the incomparable Ray Bradbury. "Bradbury is an authentic original." - "Time".
