Stranger in a Small Town - Mike Murtha - Bog

Imagine if you lived in a big city and you embraced all of its fine arts and culture. Now you and your family were forced to move to a small town in Iowa because of a job transfer. This is what happens to the Williams family from New York City. The statue of Liberty in the New York Harbor always seems to promise a better life for all who would be a part of this life style. The only thing that resembles a towering statue in Burton Iowa is their water tower. The story revolves around a slightly shy, fifteen year old boy who has to adapt to small town America after his family moves to the Midwest. The town puts more pride in their high school football team than they do in any kind of fine arts. With the adjustments of a new school, trying to meet new friends while fighting off a bully, Chris Williams discovers some talents he never knew he had. This discovery comes after stepping out of his comfort zone. After accepting changes, Chris finds this small town and his life very exciting in a completely different way than he would have ever imagined. Enjoy a story that captures the innocence of a young man and new discoveries of himself and a charming small town.
