Great children's book with pictures. About two young girls who tell
everyone about all the fun they have living in the country on a big
farm.
"Lulu the Snow Goat" is the remarkable true story of a Nubian
goat living on a farm in North Carolina who always knows when snow
is coming. Even when meteorologists fail to predict it, without
fail Lulu heads to the barn and snuggles up in the hay...and a few
hours later, snow begins to fall.
Soon Lulu's owner Earl realizes that the "only" time she goes to
the barn is when it is going to snow. And so, the next time he sees
Lulu head to the barn, Earl alerts school superintendent Joe
Sinclair so he can close the schools in time to keep kids safe at
home.
But when Lulu's "prediction" doesn't match the local
meteorologist's, Dr. Joe decides to ignore Earl's advice. A few
hours later, the buses are struggling to stay on the road due to
the ice and snow that has fallen.
Dr. Joe decides to trust Lulu's instincts from then on, no
matter how foolish he might look taking advice from a goat
Soon, Lulu the Snow Goat becomes a local hero. And not only does
she help keep kids safe, but her fame also helps raise scholarship
money to send kids to college.
