Many worry that these United States are becoming too much like each other -- but Kansans know differently. Fun for all ages, this trivia-cum-brag-book highlights and celebrates the Sunflower State's different traditions, fashions, cuisine, and history with humor.
For example, you know you're in Kansas when . . .
*your town has a hot and cold water tower
*there's twice-yearly "Dorothy training"
*people call their basements storm shelters

*pancake flipping is an international sport
*a ghost town has two wildly-successful fried chicken restaurants
*people from Japan call to order tumbleweeds
