ABOUT THE BOOK Joan Day Thinking of Yesterday Today is a heartwarming collection of childhood memoirs about growing up on a dairy farm in Bath, New Hampshire, during the 1940s and 1950s. Author Joan Day takes readers on a journey, sharing her childhood memories of fun and togetherness on her family’s farm. In the book, Joan introduces readers to her parents, Stephen and Natalie Burton, and her three siblings, Ray, Mary and Steve.

The hardcover book contains numerous black and white photographs, old family recipes and neighborhood illustrations. Thinking of Yesterday Today invites readers to journey back in time, to a slower pace of life and share the joy of Joan’s childhood and teaches us all the fun in creating childhood memories that last. “You never really leave a place you love,” writes Joan. “Part of it you take with you, leaving a part of yourself behind.” Download Thinking of Yesterday Today book flyer Testimonial 2009: Dear Joan - Ray was so kind to bring me a copy of Thinking of Yesterday Today on his visit to Kennebunk with friends. When I read your story, I couldn't stop until I had finished! Your remembrances of childhood were told beautifully, and while reading, I was reliving my own childhood as well as yours!
