Tales from a Poultry Farm

From the author of Among the Meadow People and other books in its series comes Tales from a Poultry Farm a collection of 15 stories about the various birds found on the farm.From the authors introduction- I have often wondered why there were not more stories written about Chickens and their friends and now I am glad that there have been so few for I have greatly enjoyed writing some for you. Did I ever tell you that I cared for my fathers Chickens when I was a little girl? That was one of my duties and the most pleasant of all. It was not until I was older that I became acquainted with Ducks Geese and Turkeys and I always wish that I might have lived on a poultry farm like the one of which I have written for then I could have learned much more than I did....One must learn much outside of school as well as inside in order to be truly well educated. You should never look at poultry and say Why they are only Hens! or Why they are only Ducks! Quite likely when they look at you they may be thinking Why they are only boys! or Why they are only girls! Yet if you are gentle and care for them you and they will learn to think a great deal of each other and you will win new friends among the feathered people.Collect all of the Among the ... People series with new color images as well as Dooryard Stories also by the same author available now from Living Book Press.
