She records the Louisiana crickets chirping, Momma strumming her guitar, their broken trailer door squeaking. But the crown jewel of her collection is a sound she didn't collect herself: an old recording of her daddy's warm-sunshine laugh, saved on an old phone's voicemail. It's the only thing she has of his, and the only thing she knows about him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUntil the day she hears that laugh--\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ehis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e laugh--pouring out of the car radio. Going against Momma's wishes, Maybelle starts listening to her radio DJ daddy's new show, drinking in every word like a plant leaning toward the sun.

Her starch-stiff neighbor Mrs. Boggs offers to drive her in her RV. And a bully of a boy from the trailer park hitches a ride, too. These are not the people May would have chosen to help her, but it turns out they're searching for things as well. And the journey will mold them into the best kind of family--the kind you choose for yourself.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39339372281922,"sku":"","price":350.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/4884\/7170\/products\/9781984893864.jpg?v=1621708621","url":"https:\/\/koolskoolbookstore.com\/products\/the-lonely-heart-of-maybelle-lane","provider":"KoolSkool The Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
