Book Description

February 13, 2003 0805958681 978-0805958683
In 1932, two German-American farm boys in North Dakota made an otherworldly discovery that would change their lives forever. It was a dusky summer evening when the twelve and eight-year-old brothers stumbled upon a machine in the mountains unlike anything they’d seen before Bigger than the Dworshak barn and "round like a silver dollar," the contraption rotated and flashed multicolored lights. Something like an invisible fence prevented the curious youngsters from approaching the "ship," so they sat and watched instead – sat and watched as an unusual door opened and out walked three men.

The Dworshak brothers observed this unearthly ship and its passengers repeatedly and on into adulthood, even going so far as to talk with the men and enter the saucer, gaining extraterrestrial knowledge along the way. Almost seventy years after the first sighting, Dworshak shares his awing account of close encounters with beings from another galaxy.

5.0 out of 5 stars UFO's Are With Us, Take My Word, June 29, 2004
By 
Judy Mickelson (Missoula, Mt. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: UFOs Are with Us Take My Word (Paperback)
For a first time author and at 84, Leo is quite descriptive and tells it like is. He is very honest in his narrative and his memory is not faulty at all. I especially enjoyed the part where he and his brother goes into the UFO. I laughed out loud when his brother tried to out maneuver the chair! It was hilarious how the chair tried coming under him only to have the boy move at the last minute, giggling through out! A typical boy on a not so typical chair! Even the ET's laughed too. I recommend this book to adults as well as children. It is not frightening but tells a story of children coming across something not quite right but yet compelling them to try and understand the best way they can.

5.0 out of 5 stars a simple tale, January 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: UFOs Are with Us Take My Word (Paperback)
This story is so simple and heartfelt it's believable. It's a first person account of two small boys struggling mightily to make some sense of what they're experiencing. And considering their background and ages they do a pretty good job of it. It's a gentle tale, too. Nothing horrifying or scary, as in some contactee cases. These kind visitors from somewhere extend every effort to make the boys feel calm and invited.

What would prompt (short of derangement or fraud) an every day person with average writing skills such as Leo Dworshak to make the effort to record something like this? And venture into the taboo waters of being associated with the subject of UFOs. Any intent to launch a popular children's book with this story would certainly be misguided.

No, this is something deeply personal and compelling that Dworshak wanted to share.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than meets the eye...., July 6, 2008
By 
Chip E (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: UFOs Are with Us Take My Word (Paperback)
The two other reader/reviewers give an excellent, concise summary and I heartily echo their impressions. I had the privilege to correspond with Mr Dworshak a time or two, and anxiously awaited the book he was in the process of writing and was saddened to learn that he had passed on. Don't let this slim volume with homey front cover mislead you. This account rings true of an EXTRAORDINARY encounter with beings whose identities though unknown, are nevertheless apparently deeply understanding of human nature and likewise profoundly and compassionately interested in the well being of planet earth and it's living inhabitants. A compelling read!
