So I haven’t seen my friend Jacqueline for about two years, but she has spent at least half of that time researching and writing a delightful book, a compilation of memories of living and growing up in the Westchester section of Miami-Dade County, Florida.
It’s a look back at a time that’s not so long ago, of knowing all your neighbors (and doing right by them), of knowing all the other kids in your neighborhood, of unlocked doors, and more.
Even though this book presents anecdotes of life in that area, I feel there are many other places one could come from that would evoke the same kind of memories, so you don’t have to be from Westchester to enjoy it!
However, within you WILL find the vibe, the feel, the special memories of that unique melting pot neighborhood, so whether you read it because of memories of Westchester or just your curiosity about it, you will be rewarded.
Most of all, you’ll learn that neighborhoods may change, but memories and friendships are forever… and they need to be cherished and preserved.
You can learn lots more below.
Enjoy!
