Thank you to Netgalley for this e- copy of Our Friendly Farmhouse by Melissa Ferguson in exchange for a honest review . This book is a breath of fresh air about a family who leave their home to settle in the Appalachian Mountains right before Covid lockdowns. They bid on their land at auction and build a beautiful farmhouse and welcome many animal friends . Even though this is technically a children’s book , with its beautiful illustrations it can be read by any age group . It is a remarkable tale about trying new things and taking leaps of faith even though they are scary.
