Heroes Beneath the Waves: Submarine Stories of the Twentieth Century.
I am a lifetime member of .the World War II Veterans Wives and USSVI Wives and I am the author of this book. A book for preteens and up. Heroes Beneath the Waves is about teenage boys who left farms, small towns, and inner cities to defend the United States and democracy worldwide. Signing up for United States Navy submarine duty was an adventure of a lifetime during the early 1940s. Dreams of torpedoing Japanese and German ships and subs consumed their thoughts. Those who returned home as young men were older and wiser. Heroes Beneath the Waves was written to honor these men—gallant heroes—who served and are serving today on submarines. The unbelievable stories of the heroic men who sailed under the sea.

Toad Fellow a Poem
Toad
Fellow

Mary Nida Smith
The
twisted road
Covered
with yellow leaves
Traveled
a toad
Named
Longfellow.
Longfellow
the toad
Was
a poet, remember
Who
loved railroads
The month of December.
The
month of lights
All
colors and shapes
That
twinkled bright
Throughout
the landscape.
