Welcome back to Frost Heaves, New Hampshire, where the coffee’s strong, the winters are longer, and common sense is about as rare as a reasonable property tax bill.    In this delightful new collection, Yankee humorist Fred Marple returns with more tales from New England’s most charmingly unpredictable town. When the Loon Lodge decides to raise funds with a duck race, nobody counted on the ducks having their own agenda. Young Albert Cooper discovers that prize sows and romance don’t mix, And when Millard Tuttle spots a certain red-suited fellow in distress, Christmas in Frost Heaves takes an unexpected turn.    From the church basement to the town square, Pastor Woodstead questions his calling while a champion bingo player meets her match in an overly chatty newcomer. Plus, catch up on all the local news through Fred’s signature 'News Nuggets' and police reports that prove truth really is stranger than fiction.     Fred Marple has been called the Garrison Keillor of New England and the voice of New Hampshire as Bert & I once were to Mainers. Nobody captures small-town Yankee life with more warmth and wit.     Whether you’re a longtime New Englander or just wish you were, Udder Nonsense serves up the perfect blend of gentle humor, quirky characters, and the kind of storytelling that makes you feel right at home-even if home has more than its share of stubborn livestock and well-meaning folks with questionable judgment. Praise for Fred Marple’s Welcome to Frost Heaves: 'Absolutely hilarious.' 'This book was nonstop laughter.' 'Born and raised in New England and smiled through the whole book.' '...great old Yankee satire and wit!' 'New Englanders will be rolling on the floor laughing.' 'This is the New Hampshire I remember from my girlhood - forthright, thrifty, quirky characters who know what living in a real community is all about.' 'This is a funny, witty, wise and warm book ...' 'Fabulously fun for all ages!'
