Weird Michigan's Weird Cousin. Notice I didn't say Kissin' Cousin. But hey, they are two states united by the shape of a mitten. And both claim ownership of the Paulding Light, although it is officially in Michigan. Anyway, the Weird Michigan book will look just like this except it will say Michigan instead of Wisconsin and some home-grown delight of the Wolverine state will replace the Wisconsin folk art pic. ORDER Weird Wisconsin.

GIANT FIBERGLASS SKI GUYS, DOG MEN AND BEEF PASTIES...IT'S GOTTA BE WEIRD MICHIGAN!

THE WEIRD MICHIGAN BOOK IS HERE!!!

at a Barnes & Noble or other bookstore near you, or online

Welcome to the weird of Michigan! It's a pageant of the improbable; a road-trip toKalamazoo the bizarre. Scratch the Wolverine State's surface with one curving talon and discover....Imps and goblins from the dark underbelly of Michigan's past, roadside signs and icons like the giant fiberglass ski guy, people and characters who live la vida loca, monsters such as the Michigan Dog Man, ghosts and more. If it's eccentric, macabre, quirky, offbeat or outré and it's Michigan, look for it here. (right: reader's 1952 photo of Dinosaur Gardens in Ossineke - READ)
