A hilarious read-aloud favorite about some foolish farm animals who decide to trade roles—and discover just how hard it is to do someone else's job, from award-winning author Lester L. Laminack and celebrated illustrator Henry Cole. The Tuckers' farm is a peaceful place where everyone has a job and no one complains. That is, until a hapless peacock falls off the back of a passing truck and stirs things up. Soon, customers are flocking to the farm to see what all the fuss is about. But the hens don't like the newcomer getting attention while they do all the hard work. When a wise old hound sees the problem, he helps orchestrate a job swap. What follows is the riotous tale of three hens who get in way over their feathered heads, and one very distressed peacock who just can't figure out how to lay an egg. Lester L. Laminack has created a comical look at envy, finding your strength, and what happens when we underestimate the value of others' work. Henry Cole's delightful illustrations heighten the story's humor and will have readers of all ages laughing out loud.

Why do the vast majority of us continue to consume animals when we could choose otherwise? What are the cultural forces that drive our food choices?Our beliefs about eating animals remain, in mainstream culture, largely unexamined, and therefore unchallenged, Robert Grillo argues. In this significant book, he attempts to uncover what drives our food choices, and specifically how the fictions of popular culture -- literature, movies, TV -- continually reinforce our current beliefs and behaviour. The insights revealed in Farm to Fable will be of great value and interest to seasoned animal advocates as well as casual readers.

I want to tell you about my farm. It's not my farm. I live here but it's not mine. I will tell you though that the farmer does belong to me. We are raising the 4th generation of farmers on this farm. My husband's father's father bought this farm for him back in the 1930's. My father-in-law, along with the rest of the family, milked cows, grew corn and hay to feed to those cows, had hogs and chickens and pretty much every critter you can put on a farm, and grew tobacco. He raised 8 children on the farm. My husband, Jimmy, the farmer, will tell you that the farm really doesn't belong to him at all. It's his, to pass down to the next generation. In all aspects he is truly a steward of this land . . .
