Comparing "Old McDonald Had A Farm" with "The Testament", two stories I've read lately,
.
I enjoyed both books and found the views of wealth and money interesting. An inheritance was distributed in both stories.
. McDonald has a story of life with the wealth being distributed.
. Grisham has a story of wealth being distributed with consequences to life.
Both books address religion and missionary work and the value of them. Though "The Testament" is fiction, I believe the story demonstrates excelent examples of man's nature and what good morality should be about. "Old McDonald Had A Farm" was a biography, it not only gives a good example of how to live, it is the account of a real life's story.

You can never go wrong with first hand accounts of culture and history. Its a front row seat. As a younger son by the minister/Farmer's second wife the author catelogs his father's story and incredible energy. From what was surely a hard life when he was young he seems to have benefitted from his father's dedication and example. No whining. He just tells the story with gentle humor.
