Scottsdale man pens first book at 95 years old

A Scottsdale man is proving you are never too old to impact the next generation.

At the age of 95, Sam Baker just penned his first children's book, but his love for the written word started when he was just a boy growing up in Clarksdale, Mississippi during the Great Depression.

"We read books all the time," Baker said. "My father would read our books that we brought home from the library."

Baker's now making the leap from an avid reader, to writer. 

The storyline for "The Silly Adventures of Petunia and Herman the Worm," is rooted in his own childhood memories.

"We always had dill pickles on the back porch in the summertime, and we needed dill," he said. "The dill had great big worms."
