Excerpt from the Book
Growing up and going to school
Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy was born on July 28, 1929. She was the daughter of Janet Lee and John Vernon Bouvier III often called “Black Jack”. Jackie spent her childhood between New York City and East Hampton, Long Island. By the way her sister was born four years after Jackie’s birthday. In 1936 her parents had a big trouble and separated. While she was attending the best private schools like Miss Chapin´s school in New York and a boarding school in Connecticut, she began to write poems, stories, drew illustrations for them, studied ballet and enjoyed reading. At the age of ten she wrote some poems like the following one:
SEA JOY
When I go down by the sandy shore I can think of nothing I want more Than to live by the booming blue sea As the seagulls flutter round about me I can run about when the tide is out With the wind and the sand and the sea all about And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish. Oh – to live by the sea is my only wish.1
