In a sense, each is telling us, "Read this carefully, for I'm telling what is really important in life." They offer their basic philosophies, for the most part, with humor. Mark Twain observed, "Laughter without a tinge of philosophy is but a sneeze of humor. Genuine humor is replete with wisdom."
The wisdom in this collection includes being able to laugh at oneself. Some of the stories have single sentences which have become family legend, repetition of which will always result in the entire family laughing in fond memory. For example, the title of Ethel Moen Digatono's story, "A Special Brew," explains why her little brother's statement "I peed in it!" is so funny.
The large-print, short stories packed with country wisdom delivered with humor has delighted folks of all ages from across the country who are amazed indeed that North Dakotans can find humor in the most trying of circumstances.
