+ Want to read

A warmhearted story about the importance of having fun. When Floss leaves the town where she grew up to become a sheepdog on a farm, she'd like to play with the farmer's children. But with so much work, there's isn't time—until the farmer realizes his children need Floss as a companion as much as she need them. Full color.
