PS
Two children must decide which one of their border collie's pups would be best to keep on their sheep farm. The littlest pup, Sam, finding himself eye-to-eye with big woolly ewes, dares himself not to run--obviously, he's a born sheep dog, "just like Floss." Soft colored pencil illustrations evoke the warmth of connections between humans, animals, and the land.
