Unlike elves and faeries (their counterparts in Europe), Hoofengoofers are \"real down-home folks\" - dressing in bib overalls and floppy straw hats, carrying knobby walking sticks, and chewing on a piece of prairie grass.\u003cbr\u003e\nThese tongue-in-cheek stories contrast the traditional faery tale setting against the Iowa farmscape - with prairies, round barns, farmers markets, Model-T Fords, bootleggers, Jesse James, and the Trolls of Northeast Iowa featuring in the narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book includes many of Andersen's best whimsical tales - which he tells with a drawling Mark Twain style dialect.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksWholesale","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44380347203745,"sku":"humor2396","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/16qm26j5-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1716885319","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/tales-of-the-hoofengoofers-special-edition","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
