Amanda recounts saving a newborn calf on New Year's Eve, then watching in disbelief as their livestock trailer is swept away by floodwater months later. Domestic life is never dull: son Sidney braves the wrath of Linda the formidable chicken, while husband Clive conjures an unusual Valentine's Day surprise. Eldest daughter Raven leaves home for university, a bittersweet milestone, while new arrivals young sheepdog Taff and Tony the pony bring fresh energy to the farm. As Covid-19 sends the country into lockdown, Amanda reflects on how fortunate she feels to live close to nature, finding comfort in the changing seasons of the Dales and the steady rhythm of the farming year. Illustrated throughout with charming line drawings, this collection captures the humour, hardship and heart of hill farming life, and works both as a stand-alone treat and a companion to her earlier bestsellers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollects Amanda Owen's much-loved monthly Dalesman columns in one hardback volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharming line-drawing illustrations throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows real events at Ravenseat Farm from 2019 to early 2021, including the Covid-19 lockdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift for fans of Our Yorkshire Farm and country life memoirs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, funny and honest storytelling from a genuine working shepherdess\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new hardback, ideal for gifting or collecting alongside her other bestsellers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAmanda Owen is an English shepherdess, writer and television presenter who lives and works at Ravenseat Farm in Swaledale, in the Yorkshire Dales.
