A SUNDAY Times bestselling author will give a talk in Malvern on her new book, all about the interesting lives of farm animals.
Author Rosamund Young who runs Kite’s Nest Farm near Broadway will explore her new book ‘The Wisdom of Sheep and Other Animals’ at the upcoming event at Rossiter Books, 5 Church Street, Malvern.
The book is described as a story of joy, discovery, cooperation and sometimes heartbreak which delves into Rosamund’s life at the beck and call of the animals she has observed and preserved in her four decades on the farm.
Rosamund is also the author of The Secret Life of Cows, which was published in 2017 with a foreword by Alan Bennet. It won the Times book of the year and was on their Sunday Times bestseller list.
The bestselling author said : “We talk about people behaving like sheep, which assumes that sheep all behave in the same way. That has not been my experience.
“Some are affectionate, others prone to head-butting. Some are determinedly self-sufficient, others seek our help when they need it. And some can be trusted to lead the flock home. They are as individual as we are.”
