It seemed that windy Toora was an appropriate place for a sufferer of irritable bowel syndrome to hide - but not so. A dog trained to kill by Saddam Hussein, prolapsing sheep and parentally challenged ducks are all subjects in the life portrait painted by Georgette Noellat on a canvas filled with effortless strokes of laughter, tears, and memories. This book is a must for anyone contemplating farm life, anyone leaving farm life, anyone simply interested in a good laugh, a good cry, and a good read.
