"MY FATHER'S HOUSE"

 CLOVIS POET AND AUTHOR, BOBBIE BOLTON BURNETT

Bobbie Bolton Burnett, Clovis High School, 1959, has

recently written a most interesting and compelling 

autobiography. 

She is also an accomplished poet. We posted one of

her fine poems a few weeks ago, and were happy to   

have a CHS '59 writer to go with a number of CHS '50, 

CHS '51, CHS '53 writers on MIL'S.

Bobbie, a "PK," (preacher's kid), moved to Clovis in 1952

when her father, Clovis Bolton, became pastor of the

Christian Church at 5th and Mitchell.

When reading her book, with its adventures of her

teen-age growing-up years in Clovis...and on through 

her exciting life, I couldn't put it down.

It is true that "No grass ever grows under her feet!" She 

was/is  always intensely involved in life!

A  skilled writer, the sentences flow smoothly

and rapidly as one becomes engrossed in her book.

Bobbie is also a pianist, singer, actress, drama-producer,

radio host, and, as mentioned---a poet!

Her book tells stories of friends, family, Thanksgiving dinners,

homey Christmases, old-home-week type stories...that will make

you love this memoir!

If you, as I,  love everything "Alaskan," you will be 

caught up---as Bobbie lived in Alaska a  number of

times! (Even in an "igloo" once---the former North Pole 

Post Office building; she also lived in a log cabin.)

Her autobiography spares none of the bumps in the 

road, of one kind or another, that we all face...on this

journey through life.

The attractive cover was styled by her son, Chris, and

the book is absolutely full of a lifetime of photos.

A nice bonus: at the end of each chapter is a POEM, by 

Bobbie!
