Virtual Book Store
| Welcome to the Dog Pond Press virtual book store. Close your eyes for a minute. Can't you just smell that unique book store smell? There's nothing else like it in the whole world. This is the way I enter every book store, with my eyes closed and taking a minute to enjoy the sounds of rustling paper and the smells of books just waiting to be read. In here you'll find new and used books. Each has its own distinct drawing power. There's the feeling of newness as each crisp page turns in a new book, and you know that you are the first one to hold it and enjoy it. In our virtual book store you'll find books by new authors whose works may not be found in your local bookstore. You can tell your friends you found them in the bookstore at Dog Pond Press. On the other hand, there's something fascinating about a used book as you turn the pages. Someone else has been here before you. Were they thinking the same thoughts as yours as they read this scene? Or did their imagination take them down a completely different path? Used books tend to take longer for me to read, for some reason. If you would prefer to buy any books from our virtual book store with a check or money order please print out this page and fill in your order. We would like to make your visit here as pleasant as possible. Our store is growing day by day. Feel free to search for your favorite book or author. |

| Dad and Leenuts by Steve Ala |
Dad and Leenuts is the story of an Italian-American family that has serious problems with their command of
the English language. While they never do anything wrong their butchering of the language leads to hilarious
mix-ups, misunderstandings, and comic arrests time and time again.
Meet Dad, who has been in the United States since 1963, but whose English has never improved. He is a
cheapskate and a penny pincher, still driving the first station wagon ever made.
Meet Leenuts, dad’s wife, who is a religious zealot and has given everything up for Jesus except her bible,
cross, and robe, and annoyingly sends Evangelical ministers lots of money.
Meet Alpo, the thirty-four year old son who went to college to become a communist. He’s been in college for
17 years, can’t hold a job, and his penny pinching father is annoyed to no end about all the money spent on a
college education and his son just keeps getting stupider.

Badges of Honor
The History of the West Springfield Police Department
| Badges of Honor - The History of the West Springfield Police Department by Phyllis A. Austin-Bertera |
The story of the police departments, from the humble beginnings in the 1800s to the state-of-the-art unit of
today, is told with fresh insight by West Springfield native Phyllis Austin-Bertera. Having served on the last
Board of Selectmen, one of her duties was that of Police Commissioner. This gave her an inside look at the
operations of the police department, and inspired her to tell the tales of the chiefs who have led these men for
over one hundred years.
