This is a fun book with in site from Tom' life on a dairy farm. Not only is this well written but I feel like I was really reading his newspaper columns. Tom’s stories have spread like wildfire from his hometown newspaper to papers across America. Readers tell him,This book is a charming tale about the joys of every day life , and Tom's deep respect for God, people, and his animals which is very refreshing. Each chapter has a different lesson .
This is a book you could read to your children and glean lessons for hem to learn. The book is one that family readers will enjoy, particularly those with young children. There is also a strong focus on family and parental values. Not at all boring!This book, Life On The Family Farm, is a series of short stories that the author, Tom Heck, has compiled over the years. I loved hos his family were included in his tales! I appreciate that his stories are based on what has happened to him in real life. every farmer will be able to relate to this book as well parents and for everyone else it will make you wish you lived in he country on a arm of some sort.
About the Author
Tom Heck’s great-great grandparents came to America in 1861 from Germany. They settled in northern Wisconsin, and started a long line of generation hard-working, farming families. Tom and his wife, Catherine, bought their farm in 1991 after much prayer and supplication was sent heavenward. They have never looked back.
Tom Heck, his wife Joanne, and their two children, Catherine and Joshua, own and operate a thirty-five cow, 159-acre dairy farm in northwestern Wisconsin. Tom, having been raised on a dairy farm and now owning his own, shares with his readers the many joys, triumphs and challenges of having a small family farm in the northwoods. This book is a collection of Tom's writings from 2010-2014

I received this book from Life Sentence Publishing and am not being compensated for my review.
Yes, I've followed Tom's blog online off and on -- he writes well. As another farm family, we certainly can related to the stories he tells. I will have to read his book someday.
