Résumé

"The 5 Greatest Spankings of all Time" invites you to step into a fifty-five year old time capsule, to a simpler time when the misadventures of three young brothers growing up on a small ranch in the 1950's stretch their parent's patience and sanity to the breaking point. Taking place in the shadows of World War II, this tale not only unfolds the amusing and humorous events that led up to the "5 Greatest Spankings" but it conveys a flavorful and reminiscent glimpse of a time gone by, as the tastes and smells of the 50's come rushing back.
Readers of any adult generation will be entertained by the boy's ability to effortlessly transform relatively innocent intentions into calamity and chaos. Laced throughout the chapters is an unmistakable underlying message addressing family dynamics and relationships that will surely summon to mind events of your own childhood. May laughter and joy be your companions as you journey through the adventures with these 1950's versions of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
Rob Wood's THE FIVE GREATEST SPANKINGS OF ALL TIME is hilarious and heartwarming!This funny and vivid memoir of three ornery boys giving their parents fits on "Rancho Roberto" in the 1950's is a colorful accounting of an era when life was far less complicated. I laughed out loud time after time following these misfits through the barn, the fishing pond, the stock-car track, the Saturday matinee and beyond.
Rob's witty storytelling spins us a nostalgic Super 8 reel of an era long forgotten when fun and games for children didn't involve a microchip and Sunday dinner was sacred. The misadventures of these honyocks remind us that life is full of mischief and magic, and to never take a single moment for granted. I'm certain you will enjoy these priceless escapades as much as I did. I look forward to Rob's next rodeo.- Robert Knott, writer / producer of the feature film APPALOOSA

Biographie de Rob Wood

After completing college and a two year tour of duty in the Army, award winning author Rob Wood followed in the footsteps of his forefathers and spent several decades cowboying in Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. Pursuing a calling to dude ranching, producing rodeos and ranch real estate allowed him to fulfill many of his childhood dreams. Rob honed his storytelling skills around campfires of the Rocky Mountain west.
Rob's first book of short stories, "The 5 Greatest Spankings of All Time" was published in 2012 to critical acclaim. The Texas Association of Authors awarded it First Place in the Short Story Fiction category of their 2012 Literary Awards. Rob's new book "Let's Scare Mom" unfolds around those original tales and continues to pack the tastes and smells of the 1950's into his humorous and very personal stories.
Aside from writing, Rob enjoys spending time with his grandchildren, cooking indoors as well as over an open fire and riding a good horse along the Continental Divide. Rob, his wife Ellen and their dogs Babe and Casey currently live outside of Dallas, Texas.
