Shoeless Joe by W.P. Kinsella

“Is this Heaven?  No, it is Iowa” is a saying everyone growing up in Iowa in the last 25 years has heard at least once.  I have been to the “Field of Dreams” at least twice, and watched the movie in the early 90’s, but I had never read the book the movie and baseball fields are based on.  When looking for a book to listen to  while on a trip, I came across this and decided to give it a try.  I am glad I did!
It is a great story of relationships, following a dream or your heart.  Of course it is different from the movie, but still shares the same motto of “build it and they will come”.  If you are looking for a good story, give it a try and then go back and watch the movie again too.  You will be glad you did!
