"Patrick Dennis had an Auntie Mame. I have an Uncle Charlie." Teen author Ryan Haddad's memoir of his relationship with his lovingly eccentric uncle, UNCLE CHARLIE: A STORY THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE shows how their love for the theater brought them closer together. Uncle Charlie is a dentist with a passion for the arts, and as his nephew pulls him onto the stage, he brings the child into the audience, molding him into an experienced and mature theatergoer. The book spans eight years, and with each show, their love for one another deepens, creating a "bond that will never be broken." The book describes the dinners, sleepovers, coffee, conversations, contests, and laughs, from their first show to their first trip together to New York. "This is the story of our journey togetherÉa boy and his uncleÉ Uncle Charlie."
