Weird Stories from the Lonesome Cafe by Judy Cox
Ten-year-old Sam is spending the summer in the middle of Nevada, working at the remote Lonesome Caf . And the Help Wanted sign in the window brings some very strange visitors--Bigfoot, Elvis, a jolly fat man from the North Pole, and a young girl and her dog who blow in on a tornado from Kansas. And then there's the spaceship that crashes nearby and its little green passenger. . . . Sam is kept busy distracting the nosy TV news team so they don't discover the identities of the odd visitors, but it's not easy. Come along for a visit to the Lonesome Caf --it's the place to be.
