Having dreamed of owning and running a farm almost from the time we were newlyweds, I always have to breathe a sigh whenever I read this book. Of course, I am quite idealistic and imagine that farm life would only be all the beautiful times depicted in it. We know it's harder than it looks. But I still find myself wishing.
This book takes you through the season's changes and the animals' lives throughout a year at the farm. I found out that "Maple Hill Farm" is actually the authors' home.
