Leah Palm

The author, Larrabee, is a seventy-seven-year-old novice writer. She was born in Everett, Massachusetts, on April 23, 1938. She is currently wheelchair-bound because of Parkinson’s. She paints paint-by-number scenes to pass the time, and it adds pleasure to each day. Then one day, after perusing through her thoughts for several years, she decided to create a written and illustrated coloring book for adults. The book was to develop from older people’s remembrances. Larrabee grew up as an army brat. She also spent twenty-two years in the US Army, Army Medical Specialist Corps, from 1965 to 1987. During those years, she worked as an occupational therapist. You will note a smattering of the military influence on some of the stories and illustrations. While in the military, she published two articles, one in the Military Medicine Journal amd one in the Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. These were “Report of a Survey on the Role of Occupational Therapy Personnel in the Event of Mobilization” and “Dynamic Splinting for Dorsal Burns of the Hand.” Please enjoy reading and coloring these remembrances collected from several people.
