The Owen family’s TV series, Our Yorkshire Farm, captivated over three million viewers in the UK and aired in over 20 countries around the world.

Amanda has since gone on to launch other TV ventures and has written five bestselling Sunday Times books.

Her newest work, illustrated by Becca Hall, is a collection of Christmas short stories, inspired by Amanda’s real-life family adventures with her nine children at their 2,000-acre farm in Ravenseat, North Yorkshire.

It features countryside characters – both two-legged and four – who embark on their own journeys to ensure Christmas goes ahead on the farm, including:

·       Santa’s runaway reindeer who caused mischief on the moors

·       Three sweet little goats who became the perfect Christmas gift

·       A clever sheepdog who found something lost in the deep white snow.

Christmas Tales from the Farm is now available to purchase, both as hardback and e-book editions.

You can order yours through Blackwells, Amazon, WHSmith, Waterstones and The Blue House Bookshop.
