B Is for Beer:
A Children's Book for Grown-ups; A Grown-up Book for Children
Author:
Tom Robbins
Reader: Laura Silverman
The author of Villa Incognito explores various aspects of suds culture – ancient, modern, and otherworldly – and dramatizes the surprising things that happen when the life of a spunky kindergartener intersects with each. "[Silverman's] cotton-candy voice is full of almost-musical playfulness... [Robbins] hasn't lost his gift for astute, and somewhat mocking, cultural observations."—AudioFile

Author Bio:
|
Robbins had two sisters--twins--and was the grandson of two preachers; his mother taught Sunday school and wrote religious stories for children. His father was an executive for a power company. He played basketball in high school, then attended Washington & Lee for two years; he was expelled from his fraternity for throwing biscuits. He hitchhiked around the country, then spent three years in the Air Force, stationed in the Far East. Following this, he lived in Seattle where, among other things, he wrote headlines for the "Dear Abby" column for the local newspaper. Eventually graduating from college, he went to the Graduate School of Far Eastern Studies at University of Washington, then became an editor and art critic at the Seattle Times. He received a $2,500 advance for his first novel, ANOTHER ROADSIDE ATTRACTION, which was published in 1971. Since then, Robbins has been a consistent bestseller.
