For the Love of Assholes

The crew of lovable New Jersey a**holes--Wilbur the pig, Raphael the rooster, and Gidget the dog--has returned, along with some fabulous new a**holes! In the second book of the A**holes mostly-true series, you'll meet Big Jimmy the snake (of Scottish descent, which may or may not be true) who finds his way into Wilbur the pig's paddock where lies the hens' eggs. Things get heavy when Big Jimmy finds far more egg than he bargained for, and Barbi Q, the rescued chicken, engages in an act of selfless heroism to save her arch enemy.

Everyone knows a lovable a**hole. Some know more than one. And some might even be that lovable a**hole. These hilarious books tell the mostly true stories of real-life lovable a**holes who just happen to be rescued animals (with the exception of Big Jimmy) who live on a farm in New Jersey and were saved by Erica Brown. A great gift for the a**holes in your life!

"In my long political career, I've known many assholes, some of whom I've even voted for, but the assholes described in this book are by far the most lovable. A must read." --Former Governor of Pennsylvania, Ed Rendell
