Peg and Uan
Meet a shy sheepdog puppy and a playful lamb
£6.99
Peg the sheepdog puppy lives with her family on a remote Scottish Hebridean island. But Peg is no ordinary sheepdog — she’s afraid of sheep!
Then one day, the family rescues a baby lamb and calls her Uan, which means “lamb” in Gaelic. But Peg is a bit worried about living with a little lamb.
How will Peg and Uan ever become friends?
Bringing together beautiful illustrations from Sandra Klaassen’s much-loved picture books, Uan the Little Lamb and Peg the Little Sheepdog, this adorable board book introduces very young ones to these charming characters with a sweet story about friendship.
Reviews
