Book excerpt: Ever paused to wonder how that farm-fresh produce from California or Florida lands on your table? Or how your computer...Your bed...Your living room carpet...Or even the clothes that you're wearing arrive? 50 years ago, those goods would have all moved by train. Now they move by longhaul truck. In 19 or 20 ton lots. Rolling down the highway, in trailers longer than your house. What's it like to ride sitting high in one of those Big Rigs? What's it like to roll along the highway with 20 tons of cargo pushing you down the road. Cargo that has to be delivered not today, but yesterday - or the day before? THE BIG RIG...This is what longhaul is all about.
Download or read book Big Rig written by Louise Hawes and published by Holiday House. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitch a ride with 11-year-old Hazmat and her dad in their 18-wheeler, Leonardo, for a feel-good road trip across America that keeps on trucking! Life on the road with Daddy is as good as gets for Hazmat. Together, they've been taking jobs and crisscrossing the US for years. Now Daddy's talking about putting down roots—somewhere Hazmat can go to a real school and make friends. Somewhere Daddy doesn't have to mail-order textbooks about "nature's promise to all women." Somewhere Mom's ashes can rest on a mantel and not on a dashboard. While everything just keeps changing, sometimes in ways she can't control, Hazmat isn't ready to give up the freedom of long-distance hauling. Sure the road is filled with surprises, from plane crashes and robo trucks to runaway hitchhikers and abandoned babies, but that all makes for great stories! So Hazmat hatches a plan to make sure Daddy's dream never becomes a reality. Because there's only one place Hazmat belongs: in the navigator's seat, right next to Daddy, with the whole country flying by and each day different from the last. Award-winning author Louise Hawes writes with an easy, conversational voice and an "I'll never grow up" spirit that cheerfully thumbs its nose at traditional coming-of-age narratives. This heart-tugging, laugh-out-loud portrait of a father and daughter is a satisfying journey across modern America you won't want to miss.

Born the son of a struggling pulpwooder, he fought against the odds to rise above the path that folks thought he ought to follow. Always looking for a better way, young Daniel's thinking was always outside the box. He would try any idea that would help him in pursuit of his dream. Life in post-World War II Alabama was a time of hard work, poverty, sorrow, humor, and joy. The church is a big part of the culture, providing the backdrop against which lives were lived. Daniel's life is no exception. Work, church, coon hunting, and family are all he knows. The more he learns, the more he realizes he has yet to learn. Did Daniel achieve his dream? Was the dream worth the struggle? If you have ever had a dream, join Daniel as he remembers his six decades of living A Logger's Dream.
