About this title

Synopsis

Eileen Comstock charmed thousands of readers with her best-selling books Aunt Mary in the Granary and Sunny Side Up. Her humour and observations about life on the prairies during the depression struck a chord with many who recalled those times or who grew up hearing the stories from their parents.

In No Spring Chicken, she reflects on her years as a farmer, mother, and senior with her trademark humour. Filled with anecdotes about her life on the prairies, her family, and the joys of getting older, it is the celebration of a life well lived - a life that had its share of hard times and hard work, but one she wouldn't have traded for all the tea in China.
