Here's the scoop...
"Eight-Year-Old Authors Sheridan and Rianna Chaney are proud to
bring you the third book in the "The Chaney Twins' Series." This
book, "Star Becomes A Mother," is a sequel to book number one,
"Little Star, Raising Our First Calf." In this endearing third book,
the girls see Star become a mother herself, and watch as she nurtures her
newborn calf that the twins have immediately named, "Starstruck." The
story focuses on many facets of the beef industry and the good care farmers and
ranchers give their animals no matter what the weather.
All three books are 32 pages and are full of captivating color photographs by
professional photographer and the books' co-creator Kelly Hahn Johnson of
Sharpsburg, Md. The easy-to-read text geared toward preschool and
elementary-aged children has been selected by numerous Farm Bureau groups, Ag
in the Classroom programs and county and state cattle women's organizations
across the country as their “Accurate Ag Books.” Book #2, “Mini Milk Maids on
the Mooove,” featuring the dairying industry, received the Ohio Farm Bureau's
prestigious “Children's Literary Award.”
The books' editor Rebecca Long Chaney and twins' mother is
thrilled “The Chaney Twins' Series” continues to make such an impact with ag
education and is teaching children about animal agriculture.
