Hanford, CA, November 25, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Roger Wong, a loving father and grandfather, as well as a veteran of the US Army, has completed his new book “Colby's Christmas Tale: A Novel”: a heartfelt tale that follows a young boy who embarks on a magical journey to find out the truth behind the mysterious old man who lives across the street.
Author Roger Wong lived most of his life in Seattle and Renton, Washington, except for the three-year stint in the US Army stationed in Frankfurt, Germany, from 1972 to 1975. In 1979, he received three bachelor’s degrees from the University of Washington in sociology, history, and education. He then taught social studies and language arts classes at the junior high and high school level for thirty-four years before retiring in 2013. In 2017, Roger moved to Hanford, California, to be near one of his two daughters and two of his five grandchildren.
“Nine-year-old Colby Anderson lived in an affluent Seattle neighborhood with wealthy parents,” writes Wong. “But he was an unassuming, shy child, who spent a considerable amount of time watching the world go by from his big bay window.
“Colby noticed the house across the street was run-down and didn’t conform to the multimillion-dollar homes surrounding it. The only occupant was an old man who often sat on his porch reading a black book. Yet Colby didn’t understand why the basement lights were on most of the day and night.
“Colby’s curiosity and quest to discover the secrets hiding in this old house led him to captivating experiences, magical encounters, and a compelling friendship with the old man. Colby’s life would be changed forever as he learned the unadulterated truth behind the meaning of Christmas.”
