One reader of Pass it Along:
A Memoir said, “My expectation the latest of Dr. Jester's body of work was that he had written a light,
entertaining piece for a change. What I discovered was a magnificent pearl in the oyster. It is truly a delightful read. It
is a primer on life's lessons told in such an entertaining way that no one minds "being taught". Dr.Jester's
book reminds us of our own humanity. His gentle urging for us to appreciate each other for individual uniqueness’s we
all bring to this world is his most treasured gift of the book. It's definitely one you will pick up and read over and
over. Great book for the holidays to, as Dr. Jester puts it--“Pass It Along.”
