  • Nathan & Tori Visit Ohio: And Learn About Wild Animals

    Leora Janson Sipp

    Paperback (Trafford, June 5, 2012)
    This book is third in a series of farm stories inspired by my childhood in NE Ohio. The characters in this story are based on, and named after, some of the people in my family. Uncle Don is one of my brothers. Nathan and Tori are my youngest grandchildren. Ricky is their second cousin and my grand-nephew and we had never met until recently. I visited Ohio not too long ago and arranged to visit the local elementary school in Rock Creek to read from my earlier books to the students there. A bright-eyed third grader raised his hand and said his name was Janson too! It turned out he was the grandson of another of my brothers and I was thrilled to welcome another young person into my life. Ricky has written me several wonderful letters and he seemed like the perfect person to introduce my grandchildren to the wildlife of Ohio. Cousins Nathan and Tori visit their Uncle Dons farm in Ohio and explore the nearby woods with the help of their second cousin Ricky. Bears, bald eagles, deer and other wild animals cross the kids path while they fish, learn to drive a tractor, and visit the little white church.
