Thompsonville is an unassuming Mississippi town situated in the southern piney-wooded hill country. Louisiana is not too far to its south and the Alabama state line is much closer to the east. Thompsonville has an unusual heritage. It was established in the late 1800's by Georgia plantation slaves who migrated there during the Reconstruction period. It has secrets and stories about ordinary and not so ordinary people. The founding matriarch of Thompsonville was Dora Jane, a slave herself, with powerful spiritual gifts which were inherited by her descendants, who shaped the foundation and culture of this small town. These stories tell of love, happiness, fear, losing, winning, anger and sometimes sadness. Thompsonville is indeed a "power place". Its people are, for the most part, good hearted humble folk who respect, revere and enjoy a close connection to their heritage. Their lives reflect hope, never giving up and always believing in a higher power. Thompsonville Collection, Mystic Song of the Deep South is presented as a series of short stories with varied themes. Each story weaves threads of love, growth, and transformation.

A man not above faking his own death to sell more records, this is his not quite true story of romance, recidivism, country music, and an unshakeable belief in Marriage at First Sight.

Then one day, when a cold autumn rain sets in, Otis and the animals snuggle close and play Otis's favorite game: the quiet game. Otis knows the puppy and ducks can't sit still for long, and soon the farm friends begin to giggle and squirm, feeling warmed by one another's friendship . . . but on this day, Otis can't seem to take his eyes off the lonely figure in the cornfield. A deeply resonant book about subtle acts of compassion and standing up for others, featuring everyone's favorite tractor, Otis.

The #1 bestselling illustrator of Matt de la Pena's Love and the creator of Otis presents an homage to firefighters everywhere--and to the many boys and girls who dream big of being heroes On the farm where Otis the tractor lives, it hasn't rained in a long time and farmers all over the valley have grown anxious with water in such short supply. One hot afternoon, when Otis and his friends are resting beneath the shade of the apple tree, Otis spots something moving down in the valley--an orange tabby cat headed straight for the old barn. But then Otis sees something else that causes his engine to sputter . . . a swirl of smoke coming from the same barn. A fire As Otis races toward the fire with his friends in tow, he spots the tabby cat mewing in alarm. Otis rushes inside to discover the source of the cat's worries--her little kittens are perched up on the hayloft, scared. Otis never hesitates. Yet even after he delivers a tractor full of kittens safely outside, their mama remains upset. Re-entering the burning barn, Otis discovers why: one tiny kitten, still too scared to move. With a friendly chuff, Otis coaxes her down and she scampers out the door. That's when the floor collapses with a CRASH, trapping the tractor. Now Otis, the friend everyone can count on, must count on his friends. Told with a sense of play and devotion, this is a heartwarming tale that reminds readers that sometimes even those who we count on to help us need a little help themselves. From the creator of Otis, Otis and the Puppy, and the illustrator of The Little Engine That Could and Of Thee I Sing by President Barack Obama. Praise for Otis and the Kittens * As always, perseverance, teamwork, and a heart of gold pay off for Otis and his friends. When read aloud, the text flows off the tongue with sounds and words that extend the imagery created in the attractive gouache and pencil illustrations. The compositions make great use of perspective and motion and are expertly laid out . . . There are wonderful textured details that bring the story to life. T]he perfect lapsit read-aloud, combining the ever-popular subjects of tractors, farm animals, and firefighters.--School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW Long's seventh bucolic tale of an antique tractor with a smiling face and a good heart will please the little chuffer's many fans. The dynamic, fluid illustrations with a retro-rural vibe bring to mind Norman Rockwell's America with a Saturday comics spin. The theme of teamwork played out several times through the tale is communicated as simply as the tale itself. Keep on puffin', Otis --Kirkus Reviews Long creates a powerful sense of suspense and danger as charcoal smoke gathers in the sky and bright flames lick the beams of the barn as Otis goes to work, but bravery, loyalty, and gritty determination are the real stars of the story--traits that Otis and his animal friends have in ample supply.--Publishers Weekly
