📦 Shipping Notice for Print Books
To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Summer Pastures — Micah woke to find his grandfather cold beside the banked fire, the old man's weathered hands folded as if in prayer. Now, forty-three days since the barley harvest, twenty-eight since his father stopped speaking his grandfather's name aloud, fourteen since the last of the summer lambs were weaned — the high pastures wait. His father says he is not ready. The sheep cannot wait for anyone to be ready.
