"We were doing okay until my dad bought us a woman. "Oh, wait. I'm not supposed to use the word bought. He hired us a woman. Her name was Maggie, and I knew we were in trouble from the beginning because, first-off, she accused Dad of feeding us cement, then started doing things like moving the motorcycle to a different room in the house."

Ants Across the Page is a story of the 1960s told from the perspective of an undiagnosed dyslexic, motherless eleven-year-old boy, Luke, who tries to spruce up his father so he can win the heart of a woman they refer to as "the sarge" behind her back.

In a nutshell, whether you're a kid whose letters move on the page, or an awkward man with tractor grease under his fingernails--there's always hope.
