Review:
Farmer Skint is a very unlucky farmer. His cows often got foul-in-the-foot, his pigs often got swine fever and his chickens were always being eaten by foxes. One day, Farmer Skint went to his old goose shed and discovered a golden egg! This egg hatched out into a golden goose, named Joy by the farmer’s wife. Whenever they touched her, their mood changed from worried and anxious to happy and excited. Life on the farm became very fortunate and everything goes well, until their postman hears about Joy…
This book was really delightful and made me believe that anything was possible!
