    Author

    Kathy Coatney

    Kathy Coatney has spent long hours behind the lens of a camera, wading through cow manure, rice paddies and orchards over her twenty-year career as a photojournalist specializing in agriculture. Kathy also loves—and writes—deeply emotional, small-town contemporary romance. Ironically, her books carry an agriculture thread in them, some more than others. Please note Kathy used to write these books under Kate Curran, but now writes all her books under Kathy Coatney. Kathy also writes a series of nonfiction children’s books, From the Farm to the Table and Dad’s Girls.

      From the Farm to the Table Potatoes - Kathy Coatney

      Review from Adults

      This book is a perfect segue for introducing primary grade school children to difficult matematical concepts such as acre, mile, pound, ton and century. Age−appropriate vocabulary words are listed and found in bold in the text.  Second and third graders study of their community, farming and outdoor jobs including agriculture would find this book entertaining, as well as educational.

      —Rachel Curran, retired elementary teacher/administrator

      ––––––––

      From the Farm to the Table series is absolutely amazing.  It has provided our students with a field trip in a book. As they read the books or the book is read to them
