The Little Mistake
Description

In The Little Mistake , Rosie is given a sheepdog puppy to rear who looks and behaves differently than the other sheepdogs on the farm and is too friendly to herd the sheep. When she overhears her parents referring to her as their "little mistake," her puppy teaches her that not all mistakes are bad in this charming story about belonging and finding your place. One of a series of titles for young people exploring identity and personal and family issues in a rural setting, mediated through interactions with animals and the natural world.
