Farm Boy
Author: Michael Morpurgo
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780006754121
Category : Agriculture
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Set on a farm in rural Devon, Farm Boy is a collection of Grandpa's reminiscences and stories touchingly told to his grandson. Superbly told by a master storyteller and stunningly illustrated by Michael Foreman - an exquisite book. Joey was the last working horse on the farm, and the apple of Grandpa's eye. In War Horse, published twelve years ago, Joey was sent away from the farm to be a warhorse in WWI. Grandpa had joined the cavalry in order to find, and fight, with Joey. Farm Boy brings us forward fifty years with Grandpa not only telling his grandson, Joey's story but also a 'shameful secret' which he has held for years - Grandpa has never learned to read and write. The story is set in Iddesleigh in Devon and lovingly evokes the bonds between farm and farmer; grandson and grandfather. The spirit of rural life is superbly captured in both Michael Morpurgo's writing and Michael Foreman's illustrations. An irresistible title from acclaimed author-illustrator partnership. The title was first published in full colour by Pavilion.

Boy from the Farm
Author: Ryan Martin
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1543407277
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
It has always been an ambition of mine to write an autobiography. I think many people could benefit from hearing about the way I have tried to deal with the unforeseen events of life that crept up on me. From humble beginnings, I find myself in situations in the Royal Navy where fear grips me, and I must overcome it. As an aircrewman, I describe my search and rescue missions with detail and humor. There is tragedy, where we are too late! Too late! Also there is success, where men are saved from the boiling seas. I explain what got me on the Christian path and how Liz and I had to battle with forgiveness to move forward together. If you have a romantic view of working for the church in different countries, then my stories of the harsh realities will give you wisdom to deal with the situations. My life has had its share of trials and tribulations, but my faith in God has brought me through.
