The Goat Lady



For Christmas I received a great book called The Goat Lady. It is the true story of a woman who was French Canadian and had owned a farm. Then, her husband died, and part of the farms sold off, and she was surrounded by suburbs. The woman who did hte illustrations is a school art teacher who knew this wonderful lady and decided a book was in order. It is a lovely book - and even though I have always wanted to be Aunt Meg from Twister when I grew up, I have changed my mind, and decided this image is more true to where I am headed!
