{"product_id":"buying-the-farm-kimberly-conn-9780988371804","title":"Buying the Farm","description":"Missi Jennings has no family, with the exception of her cold, critical mother, who makes her feel like a perpetual disappointment. She muddles through life in Washington, D.C. despondent, yet unmotivated to do anything about it. When a horrific accident on a Downtown street leaves Missi shaken, numb, and wealthy beyond her wildest imagination, it also becomes a catalyst for unthinkable change, launching her on a journey to a place completely foreign to her . . . rural Mississippi. The cynical, solitary city girl must confront a lifetime of lies created by the woman she always knew to be her mother and contend with a large, loud, extended family she had no idea existed. Missi's fortitude is tested by strange new surroundings and a disinterested grandfather, but it is a child-like woman with Down syndrome, with whom Missi shares an unbreakable bond, that changes her the most. Buying the Farm is a poignant story about loss and gain, and both the joy and pain that come from being a part of a family.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kimberly Conn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0988371804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780988371804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kimberly Conn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.76d","brand":"Kimberly Conn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927094264063,"sku":"9780988371804","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3fae1162-f497-4d5d-9336-383f5b97a33f.jpg?v=1681086794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/buying-the-farm-kimberly-conn-9780988371804","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
