First Books Ever Read by 81 Year Old

I received this email today. It doesn’t get much better than this for an author.

Hi Rosie, Thank you for your 4 book series on your family living in the barn. I have just finished reading them and as a 81 year old dyslexic man I have to say that these are the first books I have read cover to cover. “Wow!” I have read parts of many technical and medical books but this is the first books I have read for pleasure. I know you wrote them for children but reading them I felt I was living there with you all. The love and adventures your family went through was so exciting and the love for your animals and the joy they gave you all. I hope that the Lions keep roaring for you. I am looking forward to reading the book you have published on your life as a child in Papua New Guinea .May God Bless you and your extended family.
