Description
Eileen Comstock charmed thousands of readers with her best-selling books Aunt Mary in the Granary and Sunny Side Up. Her humour and observations about life on the prairies during the depression struck a chord with many who recalled those times or who grew up hearing the stories from their parents.
In No Spring Chicken, she reflects on her years as a farmer, mother, and senior with her trademark humour. Filled with anecdotes about her life on the prairies, her family, and the joys of getting older, it is the celebration of a life well lived - a life that had it's share of hard times and hard work, but one she wouldn't have traded for all the tea in China.
About the author
Eileen Comstock grew up near Cadillac SK, and taught for decades in rural schools. She lived on the land for over seventy-five years, raising children, farming, and collecting anecdotes. Her childhood dream was to publish a book, a dream that came true twice in her lifetime.
