Coming of Age is a unique book—a novel enhanced by photos and music. As a child, our children’s books were accompanied by illustrations, and now for the first time, a novel that is illustrated with photos. In addition, seven original songs, composed and sung by author, Jimmy Petterson, are integrated into the book with the option of a written code or a QR code for downloading the music from the Internet. At the appropriate time in the novel, the reader will be told to listen to a particular musical track. The book is semi-autobiographical, with only the names changed to protect the guilty.
