As with her two previous best-selling books, OUT TO PASTURE (BUT NOT OVER THE HILL) and OVER WHAT HILL? NOTES FROM THE PASTURE, author Effie Leland Wilder's third installment offers her loyal readers another testimony to living life to the fullest - no matter what your age. OLDER BUT WILDER chronicles the further adventures of the irrepressible Hattie McNair. Although she's recovering from knee replacement surgery, that doesn't stop her from getting involved in a mystery, lending her hand to some money-making schemes, or meddling - good-naturedly, of course! - in her young friend Amanda's life. Hattie's descriptions of life at FairAcres Retirement Home are written with grace and humor. Through Hattie and her cohorts, Wilder gently pokes fun at growing older, while reflecting on the special wisdom gained from aging as well as its challenges and losses. - from Amzon
