Sister Dressed Me Funny adventures close to the edge through humility and humor with these chronicles of catholic school nuns, Cub Scout contests, Grandma's house in the country, junior high school bus antics and more.

Essays recount childhood the 1950s and 1960s and later in Belleville and Nutley, N.J.

This wistful nonfiction collection of life's curves is told through tales about - of all things - a naked statue and the school tie, youthful bravado and discontent, working in a shoe store and other dream jobs, sad & sweet holidays, Italian-American family roots and, of course,  that dress his sister made him wear.
