Roses are Amber
I wanted to read this because it was mainly set in Devon and I have been collecting stories from this county; the farming theme also appealed to me. It is a short book filled with delightful illustrations and is written primarily for the young adult historical fiction market. Farm boy is the lesser known sequel to War Horse by Michael Morpurgo.
Grandpa tells his grandson about his love for his working horse Joey, and briefly about his own father who signed up for the war so that he could find Joey - the army bought Joey from the farm for use in World War One. I particularly liked the tractor story as I have another set of children’s books all written about old Ferguson tractors. There’s also a lovely piece about teaching Grandpa to read and write, resulting in Grandpa writing a treasured story about an old Ferguson tractor.
The book features a young boy who spends his summers in Devon on his grandpa’s farm. An enchanting tale about family and the stories they share.
