All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot, 448 pages
After watching the debut of this series on PBS, I thought I would enjoy reading the book. Outstanding! The TV series follows the book fairly closely. A recently graduated veterinarian receives a position in the British Highlands. I never knew how many times a vet who takes care of farm animals has to deal with the the backsides of cows and horses! Yet James Herriot makes his adventures so hilarious the book had me laughing out loud. For those of you who haven't discovered James Herriot I highly recommend this series. So very glad that PBS will soon be airing season two.
