Nika –
Ava is spending two weeks at her aunt & uncle’s farm, while her parents are away. A child from the big city, she doesn’t expect to have much fun on the farm. But then she saves a newborn lamb, and her view of coutryside and farm life starts to change. And there is more to the story as well, as there are mysterious things happening, which only Ava seems to know about. A lovely feel-good novel for any 7- to 10-year-olds who love animals and the outdoors.
