Opis

Somewhere in the American heartland, in a place where the seasons are measured by the harvest and people enjoy the simple things in life, Huckleberry Falls awaits you. In this charming collection of short stories about small-town life, author Bruce Cuddy has created a welcoming community you will want to visit time and again. Your first introduction to the world of Huckleberry Falls comes from Mayor Franklin, who greets all strangers with a big smile and a warm welcome. After you've settled in, prepare to hear fourteen tales about the town's residents and rural life. The book begins with a fascinating account of the founding and naming of Huckleberry Falls. The following stories focus on the kindness and quirkiness of the community's residents and the inherent goodness of human nature. In Huckleberry Falls, everyone lends a helping hand, and there's always the promise of a bright tomorrow. Strangers who find themselves drawn to the small town are often tempted to stay. Author Bruce Cuddy's prose evokes nostalgia for a genteel era of wholesome and happy moments, as do the whimsical black-and-white illustrations. Readers looking for a soothing escape from their hectic lives will find it in Greetings from Huckleberry Falls.
