'A charming story about Sophie, her animals, and her life on the farm.'
Audible.com

Small but very determined, Sophie loves animals and is going to be a farmer when she grows up. She has herds of insects and acquires a snail, a rabbit, a cat and a dog. Sophie's cat, Tom, has surprised them all by producing four kittens. There are more animals to come in the year that Sophie hits six, finds a new farming ally, and makes a triumphant entrance into the sporting arena.

'As usual, King-Smith creates a strong central character, tells the story with humor, and gives animal lovers plenty to enjoy.'
School Library Journal

'This is a delightful book.'
