Even Goats These Days Make Do

About the book

A Book of Poetry and Art Quilts

Waynette Pennell finds humor, resilience, and poetry in lives shaped by everyday necessity. With an affectionate eye for people, animals, and the improvisations that keep a household or community moving, these poems celebrate resourcefulness without overlooking hardship. The result is a warm, grounded collection about making do—and finding meaning while doing it.
