{"product_id":"true-tales-of-a-one-time-farm-boy-1","title":"True Tales of a One-Time Farm Boy!","description":"If you grew up in the country you know these stories. If you've never spent a day in the country, these are stories you should read. A young man getting his first job because of his willingness to accept blame for a damaged car, a thirteen year-old boy asking for skis for Christmas because if he could go cross-country he'd have extra time before school for chores, chores he needed to do because of the sudden death of his father. Another father lifting a car out of a snow filled ditch because that was the only choice he had. These are the stories of a man, a family, and a very small place, but in a larger sense they are stories of America. This is a well rounded view of humanity and life in the country. Oh... and the drawings! Man, get the book just for the drawings. - Brent Olson, farmer, Big Stone County Commissioner, Awarded 2024 SW MN Arts Council Prairie Star, 2012 Bush Fellow. Published author of The Inadvertent Cafe, Between the Helpless and the Darkness, and a weekly on-line blog Independently Speaking. .\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0D9DMX876\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0D9DMX876.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Molenaar, Jim\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
