If You Can't Make it to Heaven, at Least Get to Seaforth: The Monica Stories and Then Some

Beth Johanneck's humorous vignettes - sharing rural childhood memories with the benefit of modern insight - make for a delightful collection from a farm girl who grew up near the Minnesota home of Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Welcome to Seaforth, Minnesota, population 77. Meet Monica Fischer, a delightfully off-beat small town icon, whose early life was upended by tragedy, but whose antics have since brought raised eyebrows and smiles. Meet the Minnesota Country Mouse whose life Monica impacted in the best sort of way. Included in this collection of short stories and random thoughts is a collection of paintings by retired farmer and folk artist, Arnold Kramer, also known as Minnesota's Grandpa Moses, who shares family history with both of them.
