Think about the most important things that have happened in your life so far. Did you lose someone? Did you fall in love? Did you accomplish a goal that you weren't sure you would be able to? Did you treat someone unfairly and then feel bad later? Were you treated unfairly by an adult? Twenty years from now, do you think you'll look back on these incidents with fondness or sadness? Joy or regret? Anger or determination? Join David Almond as he examines his childhood memories and tries to determine how these memories made him into the adult he is today.
