Local Authors Past and Present
Work in progress here -- the field is richer than first envisioned. We hope to incorporate past authors (Marianne Moore, Jean Craighead George, Hugh Henry Brackenridge, and so on), present authors/illustrators (Amy Bates, Megan Lloyd-Thompson, Adrienne Su, Kim van Alkemade, Sherry Knowlton, and so on), and books from authors who knew the Valley well and wrote about events here (Lois Lenski, Lois Lowry, Conrad Richter, and so on). We will organize them with category headers for better searching and annotate them with the particulars as we work on this. Keep checking!

Farmer Greenpants has a small farm populated by happy but critters - many of whom talk behind his back. One curious cow becomes enthralled by the work done on the farm when he learns that Santa Claus makes regular visits there to buy his milk! Santa of course gets free milk for his cookies - from good little boys and girls - on Christmas Eve. But his milk habit persists year round - and, not surprisingly, the jolly old elf shops at the best dairy farm on earth.
All goes well until something unexpected happens to Rudolf's nose!
