Author Bio

This riotous tall tale transports readers on a hectic and hilarious train ride to a wedding, confronting one delightful disruption after another. Lonesome Bob is heading to Red Rock to marry Wildcat Annie. The ceremony begins at two o'clock and Wildcat Annie waits for no one. "I've driven this train for forty years, and we've never been late once yet!" Railroad John says proudly as everyone boards the Sagebrush Flyer. But when Bad Bill and his outlaw gang show up around the bend and then a fierce thunderstorm kicks up, Lonesome Bob falls twenty-two minutes behind schedule! Can Granny Apple Fritter's Hard-Shell Chili-Pepper-Corn-Pone Muffins help save the day Michael Austin's colorful and exaggerated illustrations capture the cast of memorable characters and delightfully clever twists of plot and prose in Tony Crunk's entertainingly ridiculous tall tale.
