Annotation:
After taking fertility drugs, Manda Frank gives birth to 11 babies in a Virginia town. At the same time, a dairy farmer named Margaret Prickett has a plan to transport a 1200-pound cheese to the White House (based on an incident from the presidency of Thomas Jefferson). Other characters include an insincere presidential candidate, a Jefferson-impersonator in love with Margaret, his selfless minister father, and a teenager madly in love with her history teacher.

Kirkus Reviews
"Holman's enthralling narrative...also incorporates an impressive amount of detailed information about such resolutely untrendy matters as farming, cheesemaking, animal husbandry, house construction, and the...moral nature of one of our most ingenious and articulate Founding Fathers....[T]errific." 06/15/2003 New York Times Book Review
"The story line is droll, but the book is also tough, sad and surprisingly sweet." - Jennifer Reese 08/17/2003
