Book Description

Age 2-6 Boys & Girls. This illustrated children's book is for all the little boys and girls that love lawn mowers. You'll encounter a riding mower, a push mower, an old-fashioned reel mower, and the most modern and colorful mower out there. In this delightful spin on a beloved classic, a little ball gets stuck in the tall grass. After asking several lawn mowers to help the ball, a green electric mower agrees to help. Even though he is small and not the toughest model, the kind mower tries his best to cut his way through the thick grass to get to the little ball. Bits of facts about each type of lawn mower have been beautifully woven into the story, providing little gardening-tool enthusiasts with a story that lets their love for mowers come to life.

Book Description

One day I was 12 years old and broke. Then Grandma gave me Grandpa's old riding lawnmower. I set out to mow some lawns. More people wanted me to mow their lawns. And more and more. . . . One client was Arnold the stockbroker, who offered to teach me about "the beauty of capitalism. Supply and Demand. Diversify labor. Distribute the wealth." "Wealth?" I said. "It's groovy, man," said Arnold. If I'd known what was coming, I might have climbed on my mower and putted all the way home to hide in my room. But the lawn business grew and grew. So did my profits, which Arnold invested in many things. And one of them was Joey Pow the prizefighter. That's when my 12th summer got really interesting.

In this exuberantly praised book -- a collection of seven pieces on subjects ranging from television to tennis, from the Illinois State Fair to the films of David Lynch, from postmodern literary theory to the supposed fun of traveling aboard a Caribbean luxury cruiseliner -- David Foster Wallace brings to nonfiction the same curiosity, hilarity, and exhilarating verbal facility that has delighted readers of his fiction, including the bestselling Infinite Jest.
