Flatcreek Farm is a real place. In this second of a set of three books, tales of mice, flying dogs and BB guns underscore some of the place's simple lessons. Written to be read out loud, "Live Oaks" was created for young readers to use to lull weary parents back into childhood after a long, serious and sometimes chaotic work day. The book is a short read of short stories, targeted for mid-level to advanced readers, ages 8-12.
