- DeLind, Laura B.
Chickie Mae, Marcel the Duck, Madam Goose - and these are just the beginning! Along the way this impossible trio is joined by Lavender Lovey, Dooley the Dog, and the handsome Mr. Pig. In fact, it will take a whole barnyard full of whimsical characters to round out the citizens of never-failing-to-entertain LAVENDER HILL FARM.
If ever there was a more eccentric place than this, it could only have been Dorothy's Oz, where it took Wicked Witches, Tin Men, and Wizards to serve up the mayhem, fun, and pure hilarity of what Lavender Hill Farm citizens turn out day after day, page after page.
Jennifer Pahl Otto never disappoints her readers, and once again young and old alike will not be able to stop reading once they turn the first page of this long-awaited book. And talk about bedtime stories? - your child will INSIST on going to sleep an hour early just to get to the next improbable chapter!
Whimsical illustrations by Laura B. DeLind add to an already distinguished reputation. Her delightful linocuts provide yet another eccentric lens through which to look at this refreshingly original crew with their entirely madcap adventures.
Longtime Jennifer Pahl Otto followers will not want to miss this new outing of hers. Watch too for Mead-Hill's coming release of this talented story-teller's concert readings of these fabulous stories - great for bedtime and old-fashioned front-of-the-fireplace yarn-spinners everywhere.

About the Author
ILLUSTRATOR
Laura B. DeLind has been cutting and hand-printing linocuts for over 30 years. She loves working with the medium of linoleum because it is unpretentious: linoleum has no pre-existing texture and it lends itself to bold, spontaneous images.
Laura enjoys the challenge of black-and-white design and the interactions of positive and negative space. She is also fascinated by organic shapes. Laura frequently finds inspiration in her own back yard: birds provide her with a ready-made “excuse” to play with pattern; insects, clouds, and vegetation exude personality; feathers, pears, parrots (and teapots!) tell many fine stories. All are subject matter for her whimsical linocuts.
Laura’s elegant prints have been exhibited widely. They have been commissioned as company logos and for rubber stamps. They appear in numerous permanent art collections. The Unauthorized Audubon (MSU Press: 2014) pairs her linocuts with the poetry of Anita Skeen.
Laura's ongoing work can be enjoyed on her website (laurabdelind-linocuts.com).

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
