Overview
Lake Wobegon U.S.A. is the eagerly anticipated successor to News From Lake Wobegon (one of the bestselling spoken-word audio ever) and More News From Lake Wobegon.

They are also about joy, grief, dreams, luck, and mysteries--about the extraordinary moments of wonder that illuminate our ordinary lives.
