The Book of Charlie by David von Drehlen

This is a short, quick read about a 109 year old man in Kansas City. The author is his neighbor and a notable writer. There are stories about Kansas City’s growth, advances in the medical field and technology and real warmth between these two men. An excellent choice for a book set in Kansas, for a main character 90+, a non-fiction biographical book that is heartwarming but also an eye opening book for anyone to realize how far we’ve come in just 100 years. I gave it 5 stars and am recommending it to everyone!
