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.

Children are fascinated by animals, especially cute baby ones This picture book takes kids around a selection of farm animals and tells the reader the names of the baby ones, and provides some other intriguing facts about each animal. Then, accompanied by even more pictures (there is one illustration per page throughout the book), the children are led through all the animals again, and are asked a question each time. This will help them to solidify their learning, while providing an engaging as well as an entertaining reading experience. Ideal for children between the ages of 2 and 5.
