SynopsisThe classic story of a family of deer and the humans who loved them One Christmas Eve an emaciated deer stumbled across the yard of Helen Hoover's remote cabin in northern Minnesota.

Hoover and her husband Adrian named this deer Peter and nursed him back to health, setting out cedar branches, corn, and carrots. From that Christmas on, the Hoovers observed Peter and his growing clan for four years.

It is now available in an inexpensive paperback edition that is beautifully illustrated by Adrian Hoover.

Fun to read.
If you like autobiographies about real people and animals, this is a nice book to read. First read it in the 1990's in a reader's digest book that belonged to my mom, been looking for a copy for years now.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
