While the author sheltered in place in his tiny Vermont town, he observed and documented neighbors helping neighbors, the joys of gardening, a boy riding his bike, and walks in the park with his dog Hugo. Childhood memories and stories of family life are intertwined, and what the reader gains is a sense of community, family, and belonging. \"An ideal collection for reading by the fire on a cold night.\" -\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rootstock Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50803579781352,"sku":"9781578691791","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/9539\/3512\/files\/imageloader_eb0efd10-1877-42ea-8b2b-793e56f66898.jpg?v=1790292919","url":"https:\/\/kuumba-47muwsn1.myshopify.com\/products\/notes-from-the-porch","provider":"Kuumba","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
