"Kiera Butler's Raise is a delightful behind-the-scenes look at the fascinating subculture of 4-H. You'll root for the kids she artfully profiles, in addition to falling in love with the animals tended by these kids. The book proves once again that animals do make us human, especially when you are a teenager at a state fair, in it to win it."--Novella Carpenter, author of Farm City: The Education of an Urban Farmer

"With diligent, smart reportage and an often very funny narrative, Raise is a remarkable look at a world that deserves to be much better known." --Wendy McClure, author of The Wilder Life: My Adventures in the Lost World of "Little House on the Prairie"

"Thoughtful and wide-ranging, Kiera Butler's Raise offers an invaluable look at the future of American farms--and the food they produce. Butler makes a compelling case that agricultural literacy is as important as its academic parallel."--Tracie McMillan, author of The American Way of Eating: Undercover at Walmart, Applebee's, Farm Fields and the Dinner Table
