About this listen

Earl Johansen and Nearly Kelly have been friends since they were boys in Campbell, Iowa. Now old men, Nearly lives in the Veterans Home, where Earl is his frequent visitor and steadfast companion. As his health deteriorates and they reminiscence about days gone by, Nearly has only one regret - something Earl and a couple of new friends might help him resolve.

Citizens of Campbell is the story of a small Iowa town, the unlikely but enduring friendship between two World War II veterans, and the timeless gifts of living a simple life.

I love this story. Absolutely love it.

Ann’s music has been the soundtrack to my wife and I’s relationship since we met in 1989. We both grew up in small Minnesota towns and it feels like we knew these people - heck, it feels a like we could be these people. (I worked at a Della’s-type place.) Ann portrayed them so compellingly and respectfully. The story was a bit predictable in some ways, but I think that made me love it more. I’ve had some negative feelings about where we grew up (conservative, judgmental, etc., but this story warmed my heart a bit about those places. Thank you, Ann. Great narration, too.

BFF’s are our family of choice

We absolutely loved this book about friendship in a small town. Ann Reed had us smiling and laughing and then wiping our tears as we grew quite fond of Earl and Nearly. It was an extra bonus listening to Ann read this tender story about best friends who are our family of choice.

Awesome story

It was a beautiful story of friendship, loyalty and I loved when they broke into the building to make a special moment for a friend! We need more friends like that! It is a story everyone should read!
