"Roller Coaster Kids; Tales of 1960's Coney Island" is a Brooklyn artist's coming of age memoir that chronicles the author's many wild experiences while growing up in the unique Brooklyn, New York neighborhood of Coney Island during the tumultuous decade of the 1960's. One outrageous Coney little rascal story follows another, from almost being emasculated in a friendly chicken fight, to how his 1st. grade classmate's friendship informed his views about the ongoing civil rights movement, to almost being kidnapped by a strange, very lazy old lady, to exploring an old Sea Gate mansion about to be demolished by a giant bulldozer. "Roller Coaster Kids, Tales of 1960's" reads like a Brooklyn, New York Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn adventure. By 1960, only one grand amusement park remained in Coney Island, George C. Tilyou's Steeplechase Park. Who better to tell this classic Brooklyn, Coney Island story than the author, who is very likely the last little rascal to go on a ride in the old Steeplechase Park before it was demolished. If you love Brooklyn, New York or just love stories about growing up in America, or you have a connection to the historic decade of the 1960's, and you enjoy zany, crazy wild rides.... then this book is for you. It's all about Brooklyn, the sights and smells, even the beloved rooftop pigeon coops and the whirring acrobatic flocks taking to the sky above Coney Island. FORGETTABOUTIT!

Anticipation and anxiety lead to gleeful exhilaration in this story of a father-son roller-coaster ride. A timid young boy is just barely tall enough to ride the DinoCoaster, so he joins his father for a fast-paced journey that takes them climbing, zooming, sailing, and lurching upside down, round and round, past a colorful cast of amusement park creations. When the roller coaster finally comes to a stop, the boy is ready for another ride...but his queasy father isn't quite as enthusiastic. Diane Adams' action-packed propulsive rhyme carries the reader along on a journey from fear to delight, accompanied by Kevin Luthardt's appealing, friendly amusement park dinosaurs.
