It’s a Farming Thing : Life according to Kaleb, the breakout star of Clarkson’s Farm

‘A lot of those old sayings, ‘Red sky at night…’ and so on, are based on real knowledge. Not that red sky at night really does mean shepherd’s delight – the only thing that’s ever going to delight a shepherd is changing their job and not having to work with sheep any more.’When Kaleb Cooper was in and out of school as a kid, if anyone had told him he would one day be a star of a hit TV show and a Sunday Times bestselling author, he’d have thought the Cotswolds had a crack problem. But Clarkson’s Farm catapulted Kaleb into the limelight and into our hearts. Now his new book, It’s a Farming Thing, shares the highs, lows and unexpected adventures of life at Diddly Squat Farm, and how Kaleb went from being a thirteen-year-old with a few chickens and a huge work ethic to one of the biggest names in farming today. Whether he’s wrestling with temperamental tractors, or dodging the wrath of cantankerous cows, this is Kaleb as you know him and love him, telling us why he thinks farming is the best job in the world.
