Two owls who enjoy playing together never express their feelings for one another until they are separated by a storm.

The adventures of two Army mules as they travel from one Frontier fort to another back in the 1880's.

Caney Paxton wanted his cafe to have the biggest and brightest sign in Eastern Oklahoma-the "opening soon" part was supposed to be just a removable, painted notice. But a fateful misunderstanding gave Vietnam vet Caney the flashiest joke in the entire state. Twelve years later, the once-busy highway is dead and the sign is as worn as Caney, who hasn't ventured outside the diner since it opened. Then one blustery December day, a thirtyish Crow woman blows in with a three-legged dog in her arms and a long-buried secret on her mind. Hiring on as a carhop, Vena Takes Horse is soon shaking up business, the locals, and Caney's heart...as she teaches them all about generosity of spirit, love, and the possibility of promise-just like the sign says.

Hilarious and wildly offbeat, Hoot 'N' Holler is a rousing romp through the adventures of two appealing and feisty women who refuse to take retirement sitting down and become professional truck drivers. In 2009 Hoot 'N' Holler won the Truck Writers of North America Bronze Communication Award for book of fiction. Tom Claffey interviewed numerous truckers (men and women) while developing the story of Sally Tremaine and Dixie O'Donnell (aka Hoot 'N' Holler). In addition to spending time in a rig, he visited truck stops across the United States, including the famed Iowa 80 Truckstop. Tom and his wife Sylvia live in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Follow the adventures of two curious, and often mischievous, Army mules that served at Fort Concho in Texas during the 1800s. This story takes them on a dusty road to The DeLong Ranch where they meet chickens, lambs, and lots of children!

The fort is closing! Hoot and Holler watch as many changes come to Fort Concho. Soldiers are sent to other forts. Families pack up and move, leaving the school quiet and empty. Possessions are packed and shipped or sold at an auction. It's soon time for Hoot and Holler to say goodbye to Fort Concho.

Can the awkward new kid and his feral friend prank the pancake people out of town? Or is the owls' fate cemented in pancake batter? Welcome to Carl Hiaasen's Florida—where the creatures are wild and the people are wilder!
