Customer Reviews

Roll on the floor, hystericaly funny......

I started laughing on the first page of this zany sequel to Big Hair and Flying Cows and didn't stop until I got the the end. Bertie Byrd is a hapless heroine who tries, but is often foiled by well-meaning friends. The secondary characters are colorful and quite unique and add immeasurably to this completly riotous tale of their not-so-ordinary life in Sweet Water, Gerogia. Dolores Wilson has a real knack for humor and it shines through in this book like the bright star that she is.

Birdie Rides Again

Ride through the zaney town of Sweetwater, GA with Birdie and a host of adorbale characters. With Birdie, anything that can happen and usually does. This is a fun read that will tickle your funny bone.

amusing slice of southern living

In Sweet Meadow, Georgia, Bertie Byrd and Arch Fortney celebrate their marriage with friends and family. However, before they can sneak away on their honeymoon (accompanied by his preadolescent daughter Petey), her best friend matron of honor Mary Lou Jarvis goes into labor. Bertie and Mary Lou's husband Rex take her to Shafer County Hospital where the alien comes out of nine months of hiding. Since Mary Lou and the kid are okay, Bertie, Arch and Petey begin the honeymoon in an RV starting with a nearby amusement park. As Bertie struggles with the dual tests of wife and mother, she comes home to her business, Bertie's Garage and Towing, to find the Redneck Mafia harassing Linc, her tow truck driver, which leads to rumors that Linc made a hole in one with her on the local golf course. This is an amusing slice of southern living starring a confused heroine trying to do what is right for her and for others though her efforts often lead to conflict between the general good and her personal good. Fans will root for Bertie who at times wants to say bye-bye to the pressure of her business, marriage, and parenting. The sequel to the humorous BIG HAIR AND FLYING COWS is a jocular look at small town Georgia. Harriet Klausner
