Taming the Fire Within

“Taming the Fire Within explores the relationship between an adolescent and his grandfather, showing how each grows from the experience. Most of us remember times when we felt left out, unheard, and thought no one would understand. This book takes a look at the universality of these feelings. As Granddad slowly begins to talk about his tour in Vietnam, he and his grandson are able to connect in a way that allows each of them to feel less angry and alone.”
