A few years ago I went on a holiday to my son’s farm. My two grandchildren were about six or seven years old. They knew that I love to tell stories, and each evening, before they went to sleep, I told them one about some animals on their farm. They wanted to hear more and more...
The stories were about Fluffy the Chick, his friend John Ernest the Turtle, Hi-Ho the Horse, Gideon the Goat, and the others—in short, a merry bunch!
I went back home and a few days later I received a letter from my daughter-in-law, who asked me to write down the stories so that she could read them to her children. And so this book came to be.
Anyone who loved Winnie-the-Pooh, The Wind in the Willows, The Hobbit, and all those wonderful books of our childhood, will also love this book and enjoy a few hours of entertainment regardless of age.
I have been writing for over fifty years; some of my works have already been published and others are still forthcoming. I waited to publish this book until a suitable illustrator could be found. I was lucky to collaborate with Miss Friedman, who succeeded in giving her unique personalization to the characters of the stories.
Have fun!
Yours,
Rosa Raacz
