The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments! 

Centerburg would be like any other town if it weren't for the many delightful characters that inhabit it—Homer Price, Dulcy Dooner, Uncle Ulysses, the flustered sheriff, and the pompous judge. And that's why in Centerburg, along with the routine of small-town life, the most preposterous things keep happening.

A mad scientist grows ragweed taller than fire ladders, a jukebox gone wild sets a whole town dancing, and a slick salesman dupes the citizenry with "Ever So Much More So" magic elixir. But nothing fazes Homer Price! He solves these problems with a good supply of common sense—and ingenuity.
