Never Sleep Three in a Bed
Never Sleep Three in a Bed | Max Braithwaite
1 post | 1 to read
A book as rollicking and exuberant as the boyhood pleasures and perils it recalls, Never Sleep Three in a Bed combines humour and realism in a nostalgic but unsentimental journey into Max Braithwaite's—and Canada's past. From the pinnacle of his remarkable writing career, the popular author and humorist casts a perceptive eye over the world he shared with his family and friends in western Canada during the first quarter of the twentieth century. That world comes to life in vivid anecdotes of how things were. Highly entertaining and unexpectedly thought-provoking, this is Max Braithwaite at his impressive best. Never Sleep Three in a Bed is the first book in an autobiographical trilogy.

All of these are #setinmycountry 🇨🇦 In fact, part of Never Sleep Three in a Bed takes place in the small city where I was born & My Present Age is set where I currently live. I haven't read either of them since the 80s: I need to change that! I also want to read The Dog Who Wouldn't Be. I remember a teacher reading some of it aloud to my 8th grade class & it was hilarious! The teacher laughed until he cried & he could hardly speak! #readjanuary

TK-421 @LeahBergen I'm pretty sure I haven't read Owls in the Family, but I'm looking forward to it once I find a copy. I'm amazed that it's not listed in my local library's digital collection! 8y
