For Love Of Goats (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Definition of a goat: a perpetual 3 to 5 year old at a hundred plus pounds with a double dose of orneriness. That last can lead to lots of humorous or humorous in hindsight situations. "For Love of Goats" takes a look at some of those situations.
Set up as an alphabet book, this is not for small children except as a read aloud if you dare. Each letter has tongue twisters, alliterative stories or homonym word plays to challenge your elocution. "Alpines align alertly." "Dandy wether considers whether or not this wether should go out in rainy weather."
Nestled between blocks of letters are reminiscences of a long time goat keeper. Karen GoatKeeper has raised Nubian dairy goats for over 40 years and worked with other goat owners and 4-H Dairy Goat Projects. Her own goats have accompanied her through moves taking them to several states.
The Little Goat, Star, a sassy little doeling, tells her story in a series of short stories.
All of the letters, reminiscences and Star's stories are accompanied by brush ink or watercolor illustrations.

Autorenporträt

Finally I'm getting my novel finished! "Hopes, Dreams and Reality" should be available in May. This is a very rural book about a woman stranded by a mega flood, cut off with no phone or electricity or company facing a meltdown in her marriage.
And I'm back at work on "The Carduan Chronicles: Arrival", a nature/scifi set in an Ozark ravine and in space.
Two science projects: teaching units from "The City Water Project" and the new "The Chemistry Project" are taking shape. Work on the "Dent County Flora" books is getting underway again as the wildflowers come into bloom again. And there is another picture book taking shape.
In case you think I haven't much to do, I raise Nubian dairy goats and have four lively kids now. There is a flock of chickens. In my spare time I garden a hundred foot square area plus a few containers.
