Set in the charming town of Meadowbrook, this uproarious tale follows Eloise's transformation from a buttoned-up number-cruncher to the infamous ""Goat Lady"" as she grapples with her midlife crisis in the most unconventional way possible. As Eloise's caprine crew munches their way through manicured lawns and prized rose gardens, chaos ensues, entangling her in a web of small-town politics and eccentric personalities. Each chapter unfolds a new landscaping disaster, from runaway goats crashing garden parties to four-legged vandals redecorating the town square. The story crescendos to a side-splitting climax during the annual garden competition, where Eloise's hoofed helpers stage a town-wide invasion. Amidst the mayhem, readers will delight in the dry wit, situational humor, and the unique ""goat's-eye view"" interludes that offer a comical commentary on human behavior.

An Irish Atlantic Rainforest charts that remarkable journey.

Download or read book Aesop s Fables written by Aesop and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-07-18 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The story goes that a sow who had delivered a whole litter of piglets loudly accosted a lioness. "How many children do you breed?" asked the sow. "I breed only one", said the lioness, "but it is very well bred!"' The fables of Aesop have become one of the most enduring traditions of European culture, ever since they were first written down nearly two millennia ago. Aesop was reputedly a tongue-tied slave who miraculously received the power of speech; from his legendary storytelling came the collections of prose and verse fables scattered throughout Greek and Roman literature. First published in English by Caxton in 1484, the fables and their morals continue to charm modern readers: who does not know the story of the tortoise and the hare, or the boy who cried wolf? This new translation is the first to represent all the main fable collections in ancient Latin and Greek, arranged according to the fables' contents and themes. It includes 600 fables, many of which come from sources never before translated into English. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

So they're on their own, wandering through a small town trying to find clothing, food, and shelter, all while avoiding suspicious adults—especially the police. The boy and the girl find they rather like life on their own. If their parents ever do show up to rescue them, the boy and the girl might be long gone. . . .
