Sonia,
a child of many moods and many faces, lives on a farm in northern
British Columbia with her mother and father, many adventuresome
cows, and chickens with hip waders. Their nearest neighbour
is Laslo, with his marvelous collection of old washing machines,
used T.V. sets and a backhoe bucket.
When the cows break
out of their corral, and heavy rains turn the pasture land to
lake, Sonia, Laslo and the backhoe bucket manage a roundup second
to none in excitement and charm.
Mood Pocket
Mud Bucket is a true story based on Deborah's daughter Sonia
