Hippie Boy Book Trailer: Starring my 13-year-old Daughter

My daughter teamed with a friend, Kayla Moore, to make a book trailer of my memoir Hippie Boy in her 7th grade TV production class.  It stars Syd and my husband as my dad and I at that age.  (Kayla’s dad plays my evil Mormon stepdad and her mother plays my mom).  It’s pretty funny…but I have to say, they can act!  Thank you Kayla, Syd, Mary, Greg and John!!!

  4. That was one of the best short films I’ve seen. Syd did a great job and her friends. Tell them to keep up the good work. Now I have to read your book.
