Book Description
Born in 1940 to three generations of eastern Iowa farmers, Robert Charles "Bobby" Bancks enjoyed a childhood unique to that era: playing among the crops and animals in warm weather, sledding down snowbanks in cold, attending his one-room school, and learning the lessons of love, loss, and togetherness that sustained his rural community. From funny anecdotes and family vacations to reflections on hardship and tragedy, this memoir of growing up as an Iowa farm boy provides a unique snapshot into a vanishing way of life and a portrait of the character that such a life builds. Full of humor and whimsy as well as gentle reflection, Bancks conjures to vivid life the events that shaped him, the relationships that inspired him, and his feelings for the landscape he calls home.

Book Description
As a nine-year old city boy travels from Des Moines, Iowa by train to visit his grandfather's farm in the early 1900s, he imagines how he will impress his cousins ― with stories of skyscrapers and trolley cars, automobiles and the Union Park Zoo, Ingersoll Amusement Park, and the Capitol ― things he thinks might dazzle farm boys. However, as his cousins and his grandfather introduce him to country life, the eyes that are dazzled become his own. The Iowa Kids 1910 series is a collection of three unforgettable stories -- humorously captured and simply told. Farm Boy, High Waters, No-Sitch the Hound.

Book Description
This record of the life of Bobby-do is dedicated and given by the author, Arthur Daniel Ruppel, to his children and grandchildren as their rightful possession. Written in 1968 - '69 while living in Hawaii (on Hawaiian Acres on the big Island) near Kurtis Town. They are stories similar to those he used to tell his younger brother, Fritz, after they went to bed at night for their amusement in Lynn, Massachusetts, 23 Nahaut St. While it was the intention to give each a book dedicated to him exclusively, the author ran out of time and failed to keep up with the flow of progeny. In 1974 when this page was penned he regrets this lack. Nonetheless they are given with love to all. Arthur Daniel Ruppel (Big Dad)
