This review is from: Farming Daze (Paperback)
FUNNY!!Having grown up on a farm - though in Ontario, Canada - I found this a laugh from start to finish. What a way with words, Lyn has, to tell about the frustrations and joys of farming.

For Anyone in Pursuit of An Enthusiastic Chuckle,
By
This review is from: Farming Daze (Paperback)
Under the pseudonym of Elizabeth Underwood, Lyn McConchie (who is also known for the science fiction and fantasy novels she's written with Andre Norton), has written this hilarious series of tales about her experiences as a first-time sheep farmer. From her first introduction to a house "cow," to the aquatic habits of pigs, Ms. McConchie takes a humorous look at the behaviour of animals, as well as their human farmers.This is not a work of fiction. Like James Herriott, it is more biography, and in her own inimitable way, Ms. McConchie gives the animals and people the vivid characterization that enlivens all of her work. I'd recommend this book for anyone from the ages of 10 to 110.

Fun tales about animals and people!,
By Joy V. Smith "Pagadan" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Farming Daze (Paperback)
I read Ms. McConchie's animal anecdotes over the years in a couple SF fanzines I subscribe to; her cat and geese stories were often hilarious, so when I found out that she had written two books--Farming Daze and Daze on the Land--about her adventures, I bought them both. And I'm looking forward to more stories--please!
