We long have raved about Holly Webb Animal Stories, and here's another of her series you will love reading. It's cosy, it's heart-warming, it's about animals. And it's perfect for readers aged 7+!
Each book works as a story on its own and looks at a different animal character as its protagonist, so you do not have to read the books in any particular order, and you can start from the animal you like most! From a timid dear to a silver pony and even cute, sweet puffins, each story is a lesson of love and animal connection, where young human protagonists help an animal in distress, uncovering a whole new meaning for the word 'family'.
