My Life With Ewa Book Trailer
The story follows Tim Pratt as a young man, a football player, a ballroom dancer, a weight lifter, a chess master and a ballroom dancer; in any other case these hobbies would not have meshed well, but in Tim's case, they did. Oh, did we forget to mention? Mr. Pratt was also the youngest member of the Des Moiners Barbershop Quartet Group.
