Have you ever met a squirrel smarter than Einstein? Do you every get the urge to climb the freezer compartment at the grocery store? Ladies, have you ever wished you had a beard? If you’re like me - you’ll find these to be entirely new concepts, and if you read this book - you’ll find yourself chuckling over all of them. In addition to these three original humorous stories, the title story from this book, ‘Going Home’, will sweep you back in time to Grampy’s whisker rubs, games of Red Rover and Mom’s homemade donuts. It’s a wonderful story of farm life as a child, whether it be the thrill of jumping from the barn’s loft into soft piles of hay or death-defying trips to the dirt cellar in search of preserves, the author paints a vivid and captivating picture of ‘going home’.

A humorous collection consisting of four short stories which are pleasant to read and observant of people, and life in general, in their own breezy way.

Amusing personal glances into the past, these tales are written in a witty yet poignant style, easy to identify with the characters and antics the author remembers. Consistent style throughout, the writing flows well and reads easily.
