Praise for The Alpacas of Stormwind Farm

If I were an alpaca, I would want to live on the author's farm. Ingrid Wood writes with respect and compassion about the animals that inhabit Stormwind Farm. It is refreshing to read an honest and insightful chronicle of daily farm life. A worthwhile read.

If you are new to the world of alpacas, or are seriously considering becoming a breeder, this is the perfect book-kept beside your bed or in your tote/briefcase-to read as free moments present themselves. It will be time well spent.

The Alpacas of Stormwind Farm is a delightful read, and I highly recommend it to folks who have a warm spot in their hearts for the trials and tribulations-and great rewards-of the small farm. I feel like I know each alpaca, personally. It's been my pleasure to visit Ingrid and her animals. Stormwind Farm offers a lovely landscape of efficiency and a sense of well-being for humans, alpacas, and other resident creatures.

Biografía del autor:

Ingrid Wood was born and raised in Germany. Her life-long fascination with farming and breeding livestock traces back to wonderful childhood vacations spent with relatives on their farms. One of her grandfathers was a bee keeper. An uncle tended the family's vineyards; a great-aunt kept dairy cows. Others raised pigs, chickens, and small flocks of sheep. All were inspiring role models for a young girl with an interest in raising livestock and living on a farm. In 1970, Ingrid followed her American-born husband, David, to the United States of America. After raising their son, Benjamin, in the historical town of Mount Holly, New Jersey, the Woods moved a few miles from their suburban home to a small farm they purchased in Springfield Township. The first alpacas arrived on Stormwind Farm in 1997. In addition to raising alpacas, Ingrid's interests include writing, reading non-fiction books, gardening, spinning the fine fiber of her camelids, and playing with her grandchildren. Considerable time is devoted to caring for the Stormwind Whippets. On weekends, Ingrid enjoys selling fleeces and other alpacas products at agricultural fairs and festivals. She also sponsors numerous, annual educational events on Stormwind Farm (for more information, visit www.StormwindAlpacas.com). Ingrid's articles have been published in The LAMA LETTER, The GALA Newsletter, American Livestock Magazine, MAPACA Newsletter, Alpacas Magazine, The International Camelid Quarterly and the German camelid publication LAMAS. Her first book, A Breeder's Guide to Genetics - Relax, it's not Rocket Science, was published in 2004.
