Publisher's Synopsis

Knute is a twenty-four-year old single mother who returns home to Algren with her daughter, Summer FeelinÆ to look after her father Tom, who has suffered a heart attack. Hosea Funk, a friend of TomÆs and the mayor of Algren has a lot on his mind. The prime minister has promised to pay a visit to whichever town in Canada has the smallest population. Algren has held this position for some time but recent baby booms and returning families, like Knute, threaten to tip Algren over the magic 1500. As Knute is reunited with Max, SFÆs father and Hosea finds himself compromised by his own additions to the population count, we find ourselves drawn into the warm, intimate heart of this funny, feel-good novel.
