Publisher's Summary

All of us want to leave a mark on our world. We want to be remembered for the good we did. This is the dilemma for author Ellis Parker Butler, a contemporary of Mark Twain. In the case of Butler, he found that the more he followed rabbit trails and gathered 'goat-feathers' without actually doing much to finish the work he thought was more important, the less fulfilled he became. Filled with humor and wit, this author's lamentation is both understood and smiled at. You might even begin to think that this author struggled with being able to focus his attention. A relatable story from the author of Pigs is Pigs. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.
