A gift from my family in New Zealand, this book has me captivated. While the overarching theme is about a Magpie (told by the Magpie) and his interactions with a sheep rancher's family, it runs far deeper than that. Great insight as to the challenges of raising sheep, farming and orchard farming with all of the day to day challenges they encounter. For me, that study makes the book a gem. More to come.
