'An enchanting picture of farming life, full of warmth and humour' ~ Katie Fforde
It seems an impossible dream at first for Sue and Aubrey. She is a horse-mad girl strongly attracted to the idea of farming, Aubrey is the son of a farm manager without land or money.
But with limited knowledge, much enthusiasm and the challenge of raising their young family, anything can happen.
This is the true story of a shepherding life; where icy nights are spent searching for lost sheep, the lambing sheds are filled with the first cries of newborns, and idyllic summers are spent in the show ring.
Amusing, poignant and beautifully detailed, this is a book about how dreams can grow from small beginnings into breeding prize-winning Texel sheep in the Cotswolds.
Sue and Aubrey Andrews are internationally renowned breeders of pedigree Texels. The first book in the 5* reviewed series
