If you haven’t met Homer Price, you’re missing out on some quality, good-ole-days story telling. Homer is the optimistic young citizen of Centerburg, a quaint town bustling with entertaining adventures, all of which Homer seems to end up in the middle of. Whether it’s trying to get his uncle’s automatic donut machine to stop cranking out donuts, or tracking down the criminals who stole a suitcase full of aftershave lotion, Homer has plenty to keep him busy. Through Robert McCloskey’s droll voice, you’ll get to know the characters that make up Centerburg’s population. You’ll be sure to laugh through the exaggerated scenes and far-fetched scenarios Homer finds himself in the thick of and you’ll enjoy the down-home humor, a refreshing respite from modern entertainment. At the end of the book, I’m betting Homer and his Centerburg entourage will be among your favorite fictional characters.
