Beginning Farming and What Makes a Sheep Tick

Rating:
Summary: Laughed so hard I hurt myself
Review: Don't make the mistake that one reviewer made, of mistaking this for a serious introduction to farming. It is indeed a humor book. (Sheesh, you'd think from the title...)

Curiously, this book does serve the serious purpose of dispelling any idyllic notions you may have about farm life. There's a certain amount of genuine pathos buried underneath the laughs.

Rating:
Summary: Dave Barry meets James Herriot.
Review: If you've lived on a far, lived near a farm, or just smelled a farm, read this book. As someone who's also routinely tried to herd sheep, had to clean (a.k.a dress) chickens or learned to hand-milk a cow I laughed until I cried. I only wish I could read the sheep section (in its entirety) to a church choir... They would then understand why it's a miracle that "Sheep may safely graze".

Summary: This does not deliver on it's title
Review: This book is a humor book and does not deliver anything related to basic farming.
