(2) YA Illustrated by Harry Horse. In an autobiography that will appeal most to adults intrigued with the origins of his animal fantasies, King-Smith centers on his decades as a Wiltshire farmer. What will appeal most to young people are King-Smith's humorous tales of the creatures for which he had so much affection. Hand this clear-eyed dose of reality to Herriot enthusiasts, would-be vets, and anyone interested in farming as it was practiced a generation ago.
