Jack Thiessen is an educated tale spinner. This book contains an entire legacy of Mennonite Short Stories, from bragging to preaching, from laughing out loud to consolation and love and, also, the saddest of tears. One does well in reading a story a day, for a week or a month, for that matter, and enjoying the humour and the wisdom of a community coming alive as never before. --- Jack Thiessen ess een jegromda Resserieta.

Eena sull aum basten eene Jeschicht aum Dach lese, eene Wätjlang, ooda een Moonatlang, enn doamett den Spoβ enn uck dee Weisheit von onse läwendje Jemeenschauft jeneete soo auls niemols verhäa.
