Jim Perry has compiled numerous meaningful moments of his life in "Growing up, Jimmy." It was written to keep Mr. Perry's family history alive for generations to come. The author has beautifully penned down a significant part of his childhood, various instances from his adulthood, and countless moments from his life to laugh, cry, and learn from in his autobiography. With the hidden wisdom inside its pages, the book has a beautiful message to convey,
"Life is short and should be enjoyed through work, interests, music, and, perhaps most importantly, the people we meet along the way. I am not famous nor wealthy, but I wouldn't trade my life for any other. Fame and fortune come in many different forms. I've had my share of both. Enjoy life, every minute of it, because Jimmy said so."
