    About this ebook

    This is a heartwarming and magical tale of a snowman that was just a little different than your average snowman. He lived at the North Pole and at Christmas time when Santa's sleigh took off into the sky who was holding on to the runner? You guessed it. It was Bobba Long, the Bowlegged Snowman. The sad thing is, Bobba Long fell off and tumbled to the earth. He saw the ground coming up to meet him and just when he was within a few feet, he slowed down and landed in the front yard of a wood craftsman by the name of Henry. From that point of time the story is filled with adventure, joy and sadness. Read about Bobba Long. You'll be glad that you did. For Children five to ninety five.

    Hi folks. My name is J. Lee McPherson and I live in the southern part of Missouri. My hobby has been mostly singing and playing my guitar at local jam sessions as well as writing songs until encouraging words from my family uncovered in their eyes another talent of mine I didn't know I possessed. I've always liked putting words to music and my family saw something in the way I wrote so encouraged me to try my luck at writing books. Now when I'm not jamming with my friends I'm busy writing fiction novels. In my later years of life I decided to take my family's advice and to try my luck at writing. So in a short span of time I came up with 'The Shadow Dog of Jeremiah', a Christmas story called 'Bobba Long the Bowlegged Snowman', 'Stars of Ivondale' and another Christmas story called 'The Magic Snowball'. Later I wrote a science fiction novel called 'The Storm Shelter', another fiction novel called 'The Legend of Zinnia' and then 'Dream Tracker (The Beginning)'. Now I figure I've finally found my niche in life and I plan on writing as long as I can take the pictures from my mind and with a little imagination put them to words. All my books have been published to Smashwords and some can also be purchased in print. To see all the books that I've completed and that has been published go to my website at: htttp://www.jleemcpherson.com I will hopefully have more books in the near future. J. Lee McPherson

      Robert C. Koehler: Bob’s Rhubarb Lounge

      Michael suggested the name Bob’s Rhubarb Lounge. I couldn’t stop laughing, at least on the inside. I imagined commissioning someone to make a neon sign with those words, maybe 10 feet high. I’d place it in front of my house, of course. Why not? The p

      ** Bobba Long the Bowlegged Snowman **

      At the North Pole snowmen of every shape and size frolicked in the snow outside Santa’s workshop. They knew it was almost time for Santa to yell out to the reindeer so they could be on their way to deliver presents to all the good little boys and girls around the world. Although some of the snowmen were given the ability to fly, one of these gifted snowmen was as bowlegged as could be. Every year, he tried to follow Santa so he could see all the children who received presents, but he just couldn’t keep up. Instead he only bobbed along through the air at a slow speed, and that is how he got his name ‘Bobba Long’.

      This year Bobba Long decided he was going
