HAPPENSTANCE FARMS: A NEW HOME Book Tour Giveaway


 

My Review: 

Happenstance Farms : A New Home is a wonderful and sweet story about a little girl named, Savanna. Because of her horse trainer moved away, she and her horse had to go to another barn to train. She is at first sad at the change but quickly met new friends – human and furry - along the way. Eli, the german shepherd pup was so fun to see. I thought it was a cute tale that shows readers that changes can still bring you many smiles and new adventures. 

Happenstance Farms : A New Home is illustrated by the talented artist, Justo Borrero. The pictures are colorful and vivid. They perfectly follow story and help bring the characters to life. They help the story flow and make it easy for younger readers stay focused on the story.

Happenstance Farms : A New Home is getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who are between the ages of three and nine. It would be a great addition to a classroom’s reading shelf, as well as, the local library. I would love to add more books by S McMichael to add to my children’s personal shelf. I can not wait to read the next book in the Happenstance Farms series. 

I received a soft cover copy of Happenstance Farms : A New Home from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
