About this ebook

“Where is Caden James?” is a series of eBooks about me – Caden James Dow. I’m writing about my own experiences as I learn about new things by doing them everywhere I can. I’m writing about where I go and what I do so that I can share my experiences with you. Where do you think I am? In this ebook, the second of this series, I am at a bull sale; and I help my Dad buy a new bull for our farm.

Yep, in this story I want to share what I did to learn more about taking care of livestock – you know, cows. I learned about planting a winter pasture, building a fence, buying an animal at an auction, taking care of an animal’s health, and feeding/watering a huge animal – a bull. I hope you enjoy your visit; and I hope you enjoy seeing the things I like to do.

The first book in this series “Where is Caden James? At Home on the Farm!” can be found on Smashwords.

I hope you read my first book too. It’s fun stuff!
