More Stories of Growing Up in and Around Small Towns in the Midwest.

TO ORDER

Here you'll find 33 heartwarming, funny and dramatic stories about life in the Midwest. The authors' ages range from twelve to eight-seven, yet their words share a universal theme of nostalgia and a love of storytelling.

"Outhouse Oscar" tells of a lighthearted prank, "The Zipper" recalls a time of budding romance at the county fair, and "A Harvest of Stones" is a haibun, a unique combination of narrative and haiku.
