(Mostly) True Tales From Birchmont Village - The Complete Year (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

You've spent some time with the quirky and eccentric residents of Birchmont Village-now spend The Complete Year with them in this expanded edition of (Mostly) True Tales From Birchmont Village that contains five new stories further chronicling the near catastrophes and calamities of this close-knit community, where the townsfolk always band together in the end to save the day, and a valuable lesson is learned.

The new stories (and, thus, new perceived problems for these folks) are:

• The Time Ted Canari Took a Beach Vacation
• The Time the Potato Festival Finally Returned to Birchmont Village Only to Nearly Be Lost Again
• The Time the Black Friday Sale at Lilabelle Durham's Upscale Boutique Got a Little Out of Hand
• The Time Movie Night Turned Into a Rock Concert
• The Time the Johnson Family Moved

(Mostly) True Tales From Birchmont Village, based upon Peter J. Stavros' lighthearted short stories that first appeared in The Saturday Evening Post, has been described as "the kind of calm, amusing, feel-good book that people need in time of crisis." Ruth Latta, Compulsive Reader. "If you're a fan of Mayberry or Lake Wobegone, odds are you'll enjoy a visit to Birchmont Village as well." Big Al's Books & Pals. Can't you just feel the palpable sense of exhilaration that charges the air? So come back for another visit to Birchmont Village-and stay for The Complete Year-and see for yourself what all the hubbub is about. And if you're lucky, there'll be a festival or block party, perchance with a bounce house and a snow cone machine, and of course, s'mores, plenty of s'mores!
