WHAT'S HALEY ROO? Get ready for an unforgettable family saga in 1967 Carson Valley, Nevada, as seen through the eyes of sixteen year old Lissy Bloomingson. She reluctantly moves to the valley with her parents and younger brother Roger. Lissy and Roger come to the high desert at the foot of the Sierras as grumpy complainers and long for their cozy suburban lives back in California. Why would God send them out to such a strange place? Things were a lot rougher than they had expected. Would they have the "right stuff" to become real Nevadans? Would they ever be glad that they moved there? Their faith in God would be tested and twirled like a dust devil throws around dead sage and Russian Thistles, and yet, as always, their was hope in God. They had no idea about the romance and adventure that lay ahead - the paint horse and the wild herd, the very stuck-up neighbor girl and best of all, the guy named Buck.
