I received this review in my e-mail. It looks interesting, and I am going to try to get it at the library next time I go. Here is the review and the web-site.

******************************************

"recently read a very inspiring book titled "We Walked the Tall Grass" by Marcella Horn. It's the true story of a husband and wife with their 3 little boys who left the city behind to live on a remote mining claim. The trials, heartaches and successes they experienced are very encouraging and a benefit to anyone no matter where you live.

What struck me was the dedication this family had in pursuing their dream. They learned as they went. They were committed to each other and to their chosen lifestyle. They kept the faith no matter what.

I found this story to come alive when I viewed their website and saw the home and business they built. I have a signed copy of their book and plan to buy another to give to a friend. To see their jewelry business and find out how to get a copy of their book go to: http://www.hornsjewelry.com

We can all take a lesson from the Horn family, to not give up on our dreams. Desiring to live simply and closer to the earth are worthy goals, worth hanging on to and striving for. Reading encouraging stories like the Horn's can be a helping hand and a reminder to keep on keeping on!"
