Not only are they adjusting to farm life and dutifully taking care of their pig-daughter Esther (who by the way lives in the master bedroom of their house), but before they knew it their sanctuary grew to as many as 42 animals, including: pigs, sheep, goats, rabbits, chickens, cows, roosters, a peacock, a duck, a horse, a donkey, and a barn cat named Willma Ferrell. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Written with joy and humor, and filled with delicious Esther-approved recipes dispersed throughout the book, this charming memoir captures an emotional journey of one \u003ci\u003elittle\u003c\/i\u003e family advocating for animals everywhere.","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45029769379991,"sku":"9781538728130","price":1238.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781538728130.webp?v=1769204534","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/happily-ever-esther-two-men-a-wonder-pig-and-their-life-changing-mission-to-give-animals-a-home-9781538728130","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
