Beautifully illustrated, delightfully humorous short stories from the author’s youth in the ’60s and ’70s, courtship and marriage in the ’80s, and family fun in the new century.
You'll visit a seemingly peaceful suburban community that will surprise you with unintentional body surfing, musical back-flips, classroom electrocutions, a high-speed turkey baster, peroxide poisoning, stripping cheerleaders, baseball bat tooth-removal, hot asphalt burials, street pumas, romantic trespassing, poultry pumping, hibernating bears, spiteful Frenchmen, hot oil showers, ghostly porch pirates, high-octane nylons, and legume liniments.
Proceeds from this book go to The Miracle League, where disabled children get a chance to play baseball.
