Pairing wry observations and fun facts with charming photographs by Patrice Casanova and hand-drawn illustrations by Isabella herself, My Chickens and I perfectly captures the fine-feathered glory and surprising intelligence of these spirited backyard birds."--Back cover.

For backyard chicken keepers and large-scale farmers alike, the single greatest challenge is protecting poultry from predators. What’s Killing My Chickens? is the ultimate guide to identifying the culprit behind a coop intrusion and ensuring safety for the flock. Often, by the time an attack is discovered, the predator has already left the scene. Best-selling author and chicken expert Gail Damerow uses the style of a detective manual to teach readers how to follow clues such as tracks, trails, scat, and other signs to pinpoint the attacker. Profiles describe key habits of the possible predators — ranging from raptors to rodents, foxes to bullfrogs — and provide the best techniques for blocking their access to the coop and yard, including removing attractants, using poultry guardians and lighting, and installing the most effective type of fencing. This empowering book offers essential knowledge, and peace of mind, for every chicken keeper.

My grandfather taught me many things as I sat and listened to him. Most importantly, I learned that he was a God-fearing man. I believe that God used my grandfather to instill hardworking values in me as well. I miss him greatly, and I miss the times I was able to learn from his ways of living. As I grew, I began to recognize the importance of being still and listening with all my being to him. This has perhaps been one thing that God has used in my life to draw me to Him. His Holy Word says for us to be still before Him and know that He is God. So I was drawn by His Holy Spirit to listen with all my heart to His guidance. And as I spent time before Him, I learned to recognize the voice of God through His precious Holy Spirit within. I could not get enough of His powerful presence so I sat long hours, alone before Him, and this book is the result. In my time alone with God, I asked a lot of questions about life, and I have come to understand much more than I ever knew. God says if you will seek Him, you will find Him, and if you call on Him He will answer you. He will speak to you and through you by His Holy Spirit presence within. Gods love is extended to us through His Son Jesus Christ, who gave His very life to set us free from the bondages of sin. What is a journey to you? When you spend time with the Father, He will take you on a journey of victory! When you truly seek Him with all your heart, He will give you His wisdom, His knowledge, and His understanding. As you acknowledge His presence and power throughout life, your journey has begun.

Telling the full story of the head Stooge, this work reveals the life-long career of a legendary funnyman. Born into a working-class family in Brooklyn, Moe Howard transformed his real-life experiences of getting into mischief with his brother Shemp into the plots that would have millions rolling in the aisles. From childhood, Moe’s ambition was to perform—whether it was plucking a ukulele on the beach, or playing a halfwit on a Mississippi showboat. But he only found success when he joined with Shemp and Larry Fine to play, as the New York Times put it, “three of the frowziest numskulls ever assembled.” As the brains behind the Three Stooges, he went on to act in hundreds of their movies, introducing his little brother Curly into the act when Shemp departed, and, after Curly’s death, partnering with Joe Besser and finally Joe de Rita. This is Moe Howard’s self-penned, no-holds-barred story of the ups and downs of his life, ranging from personal family tragedies to tidbits about career mishaps and triumphs. It overflows with the easygoing charm, generosity, and inspired lunacy of the “wise guy” behind America’s most successful comedy trio.
