Summary:

Read by David Schramm4 Cassettes, 7 hoursDear Record Man,You won't
believe it, but I know someone eating a 747...People think he's
crazy, but I know why he's eating it. He has a good reason. And it
isn't because he's hungry...J.J. Smith is the Record Man. He knows
all about the lonest kiss, the fastest snail, the farthest cab ride.
Travelling around the globe, he is the witness to amazing feats and
strange deeds, the kind that get into the Book of Records. But
there's one thing he knows nothing about. J.J. has never been in
love--and wouldn't recogznize it if it was staring him in the
face.Now love is about to call on J.J. from a cornfield under a vast
blue sky, in a town called Superior, Nebraska. That's where one man
is doing something amazing, eating a plane piece by piece, not for
fame or fortune but to show a woman how much he loves her.For the
good people of Superior, the story could bring worldwide attention.
For the Book of Records, it could mean an exciting new entry. But for
J.J., the story won't have any meaning until he meets Willa Wyatt.
Only then will he finally understand why hearts, not just records,
can be broken... and why love is truly the greatest wonder of all.
