توضیحات
"A thoughtful document that dispels any assumptions that sheep are 'just dumb farm animals' who do nothing but follow . . . an enchanting book." ―Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of PeaceIn this touching memoir about the relationship between father, daughter, and animals, Carole explores life after adopting thirteen pet Karakul lambs. Throughout her years with the lambs and her aging father, she comes to realize the distinct personality of each creature, and to understand more fully the almost spiritual bond between man and animals.This is a beautiful book in every way that will touch the hearts of readers everywhere."In her new book, The Lambs, Carole George shares the fulfillment she has experienced over years tending a flock of sheep. I hope that this book will inspire readers to become more compassionate toward the living beings deprived of the many privileges we humans enjoy." —His Holiness The Dalai Lama"The Lambs is beautifully written, and right on target as an example of the natural—pastoral—world where we may achieve the fullness of human experience. Our descendants may gravitate toward the equivalent of [Carole's] Virginia farm." —Edward O. Wilson, University Research Professor Emeritus, Harvard University"Compassionate, thoughtful, and utterly enchanting. A perfect red for anyone seeking escape from their digital lives and busy calendars for a quiet moment of reflection, a pastoral setting, a moment of poetry." ―Booklist"[The Lambs] is not just a testament to the power of human-animal connections. It is also a tender, joyfully eccentric recollection of how a woman rediscovered what was most important to her through a singular relationship with an unforgettable flock of sheep." ―Kirkus Reviews
