Synopsis Truck by : Michael Perry
“A touching and very funny account. . . . Thoroughly engaging.”—New York Times Hilarious and heartfelt, Truck: A Love Story is the tale of a man struggling to grow his own garden, fix his old pickup, and resurrect a love life permanently impaired by Neil Diamond. In the process, he sets his hair on fire, is attacked by wild turkeys, and proposes marriage to a woman in New Orleans. The result is a surprisingly tender testament to love. “Part Bill Bryson, part Anne Lamott, with a skim of Larry the Cable Guy and Walt Whitman creeping around the edges.”—Lincoln Journal Star “Perry takes each moment, peeling it, seasoning it with rich language, and then serving it to us piping hot and fresh.”—Chicago Tribune

Synopsis The Old Truck by : Jerome Pumphrey
A young girl turns her imagination into action in this beautifully crafted and intricately designed debut picture book. When is an old truck something more? On a small, bustling farm, a resilient and steadfast pickup works tirelessly alongside the family that lives there, and becomes a part of the dreams and ambitions of the family’s young daughter. After long days and years of hard work leave the old truck rusting in the weeds, it’s time for the girl to roll up her sleeves. Soon she is running her own busy farm, and in the midst of all the repairing and restoring, it may be time to bring her faithful childhood companion back to life. With an eye-catching retro design and cleverly nuanced illustrations, The Old Truck celebrates the rewards of determination and the value of imagination.

Synopsis House of Yes by : Susan Fullerton
"After long talks and years to ponder, my siblings and I wouldn't change how we grew up. Not even if a time machine were invented and we could all go back to that fateful day we sat around the table and our folks asked us one by one if Dad could quit his job and work on Truck of Love full-time. Well, perhaps knowing the full extent of sacrifice we were agreeing to would have made us pause. Maybe we'd opt for a simpler, normal life: video games, soccer leagues, and the occasional European vacation." - Andy Fullerton. Saying yes to that nagging voice that would not relent has led us into a life we never imagined. The story of Truck of Love involves hundreds of people. What started as a truck load of food and clothing delivered to the poor has morphed into a lifestyle that has enriched us in ways we never imagined. We have found friendship in the Tijuana garbage dump, on the streets of San Jose, California, and on the Tohono O'odham Reservation in Arizona. We have discovered people in each place whose only desire is to provide a good life for their families.

Synopsis Coop by : Michael Perry
“You can read Michael Perry’s Coop as an outrageously funny comedy about a semi-hapless neophyte navigating the pitfalls (and pratfalls) of the farming life. Please do, in fact. But scratch a little deeper, past Perry’s lusciously entertaining and epigrammatic prose, his ultra-charming combo of Midwestern earnestness and serrated wit, and you’ll find a reflective, sincere, and surprisingly touching-at times, even heart-cracking-story about a man struggling to put down roots.” — Jonathan Miles, author of Want Not In over his head with two pigs, a dozen chickens, and a baby due any minute, the acclaimed author of Population: 485 gives us a humorous, heartfelt memoir of a new life in the country. Living in a ramshackle Wisconsin farmhouse—faced with thirty-seven acres of fallen fences and overgrown fields, and informed by his pregnant wife that she intends to deliver their baby at home—Michael Perry plumbs his unorthodox childhood for clues to how to proceed as a farmer, a husband, and a father. Whether he’s remembering his younger days—when his city-bred parents took in sixty or so foster children while running a sheep and dairy farm—or describing what it’s like to be bitten in the butt while wrestling a pig, Perry flourishes in his trademark humor. But he also writes from the quieter corners of his heart, chronicling experiences as joyful as the birth of his child and as devastating as the death of a dear friend.
