Summary

Nan Hunter is the daughter in-law of Howard W. Hunter. She always wanted to be an author, but for reasons unknown to her still, she graduated from Brigham Young University in zoology. Nan is the founder of a joyous, child–centered private school where she has inspired teachers and children since 1982. She and her husband, Richard, who have eight married children, reside in the quiet woods of Utah. Her book, chronicling President Hunter's younger years through the eyes of his own journal, was originally written for her family. It revealed so much about greatness and childhood that she had it published to share with all. It is an amazing inside look at the boy who would become the Prophet, President Hunter.
