Starry's New Friend - (Starry the Sheep) by Phoebe Fox (Paperback)

About the Book

Starry and Luna are two contrasting characters who learn through patience and compassion that friendship is about much more than what you have in common.

Book Synopsis

Starry the Sheep is perfectly content in her pen next to the apple tree. Then Luna arrives. Luna is new. Luna is boisterous. The school children are delighted! Starry is not. The third book in the Starry the Sheep series reminds us that when it comes to friendship, someone new might not fit the exact mold we have in mind, but that someone may be exactly what we need.
