Mischievous Misty is a real dairy goat on the author's real farm-The Wool Family Farm-home to chickens, cows, donkeys, ducks, guinea fowl, pigs, sheep, and of course, goats. New to farming, Evelyn Wool and her family turned their world upside-down to try their hand at living off the land, discovering the joys and pitfalls of working with farm animals along the way. The adventures have just begun!
About the Author: Evelyn Wool spent numerous childhood vacations on a real working farm. When her own children were grown, she began to reminisce about the smell of hay and horses, the sight of cows marching into the barn, and the delight of slurping juicy peaches right off the tree. In 2014, Evelyn and her husband, Robert, moved from Connecticut to North Carolina to start their very own farm where they are learning how to round up cows, out-smart goats, chase chickens, occasionally save pigs from drowning, and much more. Evelyn writes about their fun-filled adventures on the farm's website: TheWoolFamilyFarm.com.
