Reviews
"My daughter and I loved reading these together. Funny and fun, and totally charming. We had so much fun we may have even missed the fact that we learned a thing or two." -- Maddy and Lewis Buzbee "author of Steinbeck's Ghost"
"The Runt Farm books are filled with hope and humor, showing children a family of characters who don't "match" but who take each other into their hearts and make a fine life together. The stories are a good counterbalance to the idea that there are only limited templates dictating who we can love and take care of." -- Ann Medlock "Founder, The Giraffe Heroes Project"
"The Runt Farm books are delightful! The characters have vibrant personalities and their interactions ring true. I felt a real sense of satisfaction seeing the Runt Farmers find their way to harmony and collaboration. The illustrations are alive with subtlety, drawing you in. Readers of any age will love hanging out on Runt Farm." -- Jack Elias, CHT "author of Finding True Magic: Transpersonal Hypnotherapy/NLP"
"The first two Runt Farm books, Under New Management and Beatrice and Blossom, are appealing books, just the right size and length for the 6-10 age group. They are also age-appropriate in topic, excellent for the young ones who read beyond grade/age level. The glossary is a nice touch." -- Toni Myers "retired librarian"
"What delightful stories! And the pictures are unbelievable! I can imagine how they would stimulate a child's imagination on seeing them - they did mine.

What was so amazing was that I read each one in about an hour, and realized that probably half of that time was enjoying the pictures." -- Anne Melle, librarian and treasurer "PFLAG - Seattle"
"I love the books, they're fantastic. If I had children I would, without a doubt, read these books to them. Personally I hope there are lots more to follow." -- Robert Holiman "a Fan of Runt Farm on Facebook"
