The first page-turning memoir from the New York Times bestselling author

Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools

by Victoria Twead

About The Book

Wall Street Journal Top 10 and New York Times bestselling author
"If you enjoyed The Durrells and James Herriott, you'll love the Old Fools series."

If Joe and Vicky had known what relocating to a tiny mountain village in Andalucía would REALLY be like, they might have hesitated... They have no idea of the culture shock in store. No idea they'll become reluctant chicken farmers and own the most dangerous cockerel in Spain. No idea they'll help capture a vulture or be rescued by a mule.
Will they stay, or return to the relative sanity of England?
Includes Spanish recipes donated by the village ladies and a link to a free accompanying photo book.

The Telegraph -- "a colourful glimpse of Andalucían life. And a psychopathic chicken or two...charming...funny"
The Catalunya Chronicle -- “Weeks later, you will be standing at your kitchen window doing the dishes and recall some fleeting scene with chickens or mules or two old fools and laugh out loud all over again.”
