Nina Kristin Nilsen Dear Farley Mowat, it's been an honour to translate your "The Boat Who Wouldn't Float" to Norwegian, it's just been launced from Flyt Forlag, and I hope more Norwegians will now be introduced to your wonderful writings. Kind regards from Norway: Nina Kristin Nilsen, translator, sailor and environmentalist
Margo Lamont He's better than all the rest.

Hey Gang,
I thought I would share this surprising find! Farley's signature circa 1985! Found this quite unexpected in an old library book I borrowed the other day, he signed it to Mary, wonder why she ever gave it away...
Bill My father was an executive at Little, Brown & Co., so I grew up surrounded by the collected works of Farley Mowat. It's the best reading when the weather is the most brutal and you have no choice but to hunker down with a good book and ride it out.
Michael MacLeod Hi Farley, My name is Michael MacLeod, I am 8 years old and just read owls in the family....it is the best book of all time!!!!

We ordered and made sure we ran out of the icecream store. I think we didn't even thank him. We were scared that's for sure.
When I told about what happened at home, I was told that the man was
probably Farley Mowat and they showed me a picture of him. It sure was
him alright!
Curious about the man I started reading his books and never looked back since!

I have a Farley Mowat memory to share.
In the days that I was a ignorant youngster living in Port Hope I
didn't even know of the existence of Farley Mowat. We were at the
icecreamstore in Port Hope that just opened on Queen street and were
trying to decide which flavour to get, since they all looked so
awesome. Behind us a ...man entered. Scruffy beard, old clothes, a bit
bewildered. After listening to our debate about the flavours he
suggested to just get 2 flavours each. We looked at him in astonishment
because of his unusual appearence and uttered the words: "bbbbecause we
only have mmmmoney for one"
He reached into his pockets and out came this paw with dollar bills. All wrinkled and bundled in a ball.
" Don't worry about that dear. This one is one me"Read More

If Farley Mowat invited you to visit, what would you do? Leanne Allison and Karsten Heuer knew Canada's storyteller through his books, activism, and through controversy . They couldn't imagine flying to see him. ...
