King-Smith, Dick2015
Book
Sophie is small but very determined. She loves animals & is going to be a lady farmer when she grows up. She would love a pony, but doesn't think she will ever be that lucky. She does get a lucky break, though, when her aunt invites her to stay! Small but very determined, Sophie is everyone's favourite farmer-to-be!From the beloved author of Babe comes the last of six stories about Dick King-Smith's most adored (human!) character, the inimitable Sophie, re-imagined twenty years later by the witty, perceptive paintbrush of the award-winning Hannah Shaw. Sophie would love to have a pony, but she doesn't think she'll ever be that lucky. She does get a lucky break, though, when Great Aunt Al invites her to Scotland! This charming, funny story beautifully captures the dynamics of family life and has been given a fresh, contemporary look by a talented artist.
