The instant no. 2 Sunday Times bestseller! Join the Nicholson
family for this heartwarming journey through a typical springtime
on their South Yorkshire farm. Throughout the book they reflect on
the childhood stories, testing times, poignant memories and
enriching experiences that have shaped the lives they lead today.
With the coming of a new season, Roger and Cynthia Nicholson and
their sons Richard, Robert and David show how the farming year is
shaped around the arrival of baby goats, lambs, calves and piglets
galore. As Yorkshire's premier open farm attraction, Cannon Hall
Farm continues to play host to thousands of visitors and spring is
the busiest time of the year. People flock to meet the new arrivals
and catch up with old favourites such as the llama and alpaca
posse, the stunning shire horses and the irrepressible Shetland
ponies, including Ozzy Horsebourne and Jon Bon Pony. Along with all
the animal antics, Springtime at Cannon Hall Farm features tales of
bygone days when traditional skills, crafts and daily practices
shaped life in the countryside. And for fans of Rob and Dave's
Channel 5 shows, there are lots of behind-the-scenes secrets you
won't want to miss...
