I knew I'd be sorry if I started it and it is seriously cutting into my online time! Like your theme, especially since I have sadly become addicted to Farmtown on Facebook.

I agree with Kelly, farms are great places to be a kid! I am now a city dweller & long for the rolling rural roads (try saying that fast a few times!). My youngest Lou, has kept the dream alive and talks constantly of the day we move to "the farm". (She's 4 so she is constantly talking.) Fantastic collection of farm-theme related books!

It's a lot of work, even with a couple of kids to help out. But it was a great childhood! (Thanks go out to my mom and dad....)

Hvaing read Michael Perry before, I'm certain that Coop will be an entertaining read. However, I still don't want any chickens of my own! Too much work (plus I only eat eggs baked into cookies and cakes ::grin::). I have the first and the third books on my wish lists.
