(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Mark Elliott. Nine-year-old Eli, helped by his father and grandfather, prepares bull calf Little Joe to show at the county fair. This touching story of one boy's unconditional devotion to his calf is ideally suited for readers with an interest in farming, animals, and country life. Elliott's illustrations complement the tender friendship that emerges between Eli and Little Joe.
