"Hey, Mike, what're we gonna do today?"It's 1960, and Mike is ten
again, at least in his mind. Looking back on his final year of
elementary school, he reflects on the many challenges that
confronted him then. Junior high and the opposite sex loom on the
horizon-his mini-version of the New Frontier. From the neighborhood
baseball field to the local movie theatre, from Halloween to
Christmas morning, and from Bozo buckets to a once-in-a-lifetime
trip across the country to Disneyland, Mike is constantly in
motion-and often in trouble. But he has his younger brother Tommy
and a few close friends to help him navigate the vast suburban
wilderness. This snapshot of a bygone era shows the last generation
allowed to be kids taking full advantage of it-and having the time
of their lives.MICHAEL J. BELLITO taught Speech and English,
including creative writing classes, at John Hersey High School in
Arlington Heights, Illinois, for thirty-two years. He has been
previously published in North Shore, a Chicago-area magazine. That
piece was a short story about his grandfather entitled "Waiting for
a Pennant." Ten Again is his first novel. He is currently teaching
at Harper College, a local community college. Having raised two
children, he now lives with his wife in Wheeling, Illinois.
