Date 9 of January 2007.
Have still not recieved the books. I know we live in the outskirts of civilisation but this calls for an investigation with our Postal Service. Will be back when ordered items have been delivered.

My husband had an aneurysm and now has trouble reading. He loves to listen to Garrison Keillor.


5 out of 5 stars Garrison Keillor's best story compilation ever   January 27, 2001
 45 out of 45 found this review helpful

This CD compilation 16 of the finest stories in the history of the famed, long-running radio show "A Prarie Home Companion". The stories come under four headings: "Faith", "Hope", "Love", and "Humor". Some of the best stories from this package include "Smokes", a brilliant story of a father's attempt at quitting smoking out of pure guilt. "Let us Pray" tells the story of Pastor Inquvist and the stir up he causes among his congregation. "A Trip to Grand Rapids" is about a weekend getaway gone horribly wrong. "Truckstop" is the painfully hilarious account of the events both before and after Florian Krebsbach accidentally leaves his wife Myrtle at a truckstop. "Homecoming" is the story of Karl Krebsbach and his nightmarish experience on the day of his daughter's High School homecoming. These and many other brilliant stories make an amazing array of the Lake Wobegon experience.


5 out of 5 stars Thank goodness there's More News from Lake Wobegon!   June 1, 2000
 13 out of 14 found this review helpful

These tapes are an absolute must for anyone who enjoys heartwarming, humorous stories. I've listened to them many times and have never tired of them. All the stories are memorable, but one in particular stands out in my mind. A young man overhears his father telling someone that his son is a "pretty good boy." The son thinks to himself that this was the closest his father ever came to saying, "I love you," and it was close enough for him.

Garrison Keillor's voice is very enchanting. He even sings a little on the tapes. For a fun, old-fashioned evening I suggest friends and family gather round with a plate of oatmeal cookies and a mug of hot chocolate and listen to More News from Lake Wobegon.


4 out of 5 stars Can't wait for bed   April 9, 2000
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I can't wait to go to bed, pop in a cassette and listen to more stories from the lake. This is America at it's finest and funniest moments. Two thumbs up to all the people of lake Wobegon for making me laugh and making me go to bed early.
