Rufus Rides a Catfish: (And Other Fables From the Farmstead) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732197671)

A whimsical, engaging collection of stories with colorful characters, including talking animals, about farm life in the 1970's heartland. Born under difficult circumstances, Rufus the cat is the protector of the farmstead. Whether it's a hiccupping pig, an ornery horse, or a giant catfish, Rufus will not hesitate to defend his people. Even Lulu the Labrador stays in line and behaves, usually. All of the tales are based on bedtime stories told by the author's father and all contain at least an element of truth.
