Heavens to Murgatroid

About the Book

It is not everyday that a book comes along that really conveys the humor, laughter, and misnomers rolled into a Mom’s neck. One such book is Ronald Garver’s Heavens To Murgatroid, a funny read about a Mom bent on straightening out her misguided son’s frame, and a Dad on a mission to eax the keeper of the hen house that will keep you in stitches the whole time.

The author lived each episode, like waking up under his bed each day to new revelations. The book has an unique storyline and can hold a reader’s interest to the very end.
