Kaleb Cooper – författare

My name is Kaleb, and I am a farmer. I''ve been a farmer since I was a boy. And I absolutely LOVE it.

Grab your wellies and join Kaleb, his trusty dog, and the love-of-his-life tractor in these muddy, true, and very silly stories from the farm.

You''ll meet Jeff the Mad Rooster, Bruce the Breakout Boar (and MAYBE even catch him), learn the wisdom of sheep, and discover how using a tractor can solve nearly every problem there is.

From the nation''s favourite farming star, Kaleb Cooper, and with funny illustrations, too, these silly and true tales - packed with everything Kaleb''s learnt since he first became a farmer - are perfect for all farm-mad fans aged 5-7 years old.

The star of Clarkson''s Farm shares his worldly wisdom on life''s big issues, from the difference between straw and hay to the importance of having a hair perm.Chipping Norton''s Kaleb Cooper has strong views on lots of things: sheep (''suicidal morons''), Jeremy Clarkson (''there are two types of farming, unless you count whatever it is Jeremy thinks he''s doing''), goats (''they''re a proper good clear-up animal, they eat everything - no wonder they taste horrible''), New York (''if it''s like London, where there are no tractors, that''s no good'').In his true, deadpan, and down-to-earth style, the beloved celebrity farmer shares his unique observations on topics such as philosophy, celebrities and why farming is the best job in the world. And, he even tells us why the chicken crossed the road. Utterly hilarious, this is Kaleb as you''ve got to know and love him on the hugely successful television series.

''A lot of those old sayings, ''Red sky at night...'' and so on, are based on real knowledge. Not that red sky at night really does mean shepherd''s delight - the only thing that''s ever going to delight a shepherd is changing their job and not having to work with sheep any more.''When Kaleb Cooper was in and out of school as a kid, if anyone had told him he would one day be a star of a hit TV show and a Sunday Times bestselling author, he''d have thought the Cotswolds had a crack problem. But Clarkson''s Farm catapulted Kaleb into the limelight and into our hearts. Now his new book, It''s a Farming Thing, shares the highs, lows and unexpected adventures of life at Diddly Squat Farm, and how Kaleb went from being a thirteen-year-old with a few chickens and a huge work ethic to one of the biggest names in farming today. Whether he''s wrestling with temperamental tractors, or dodging the wrath of cantankerous cows, this is Kaleb as you know him and love him, telling us why he thinks farming is the best job in the world.
