Oatmeal Killed the Dinosaurs - A Memoir (Paperback)

When Allen Anderson's mother sends him a Christmas card asking, "Your father and I wonder sometimes what we did as parents that made us such heels in our children's eyes?" Allen writes his parents an emotional 16-page letter. In it he details over 60 events he feels were unjust during his teenage years at home. Oatmeal Killed the Dinosaurs draws upon Allen's letter to tell his inspirational story. In turn the reader is forced to question the motivation of their own parents: Were they motivated to do the best for their child, or themselves? For Allen, a young man in the Navy, his answer-and perhaps yours-lies within the pages of Oatmeal Killed the Dinosaurs.
