Lollylegs (Walker Stories)

Laura befriends a little lamb, Lollylegs, and hopes to keep him for ever.

Laura’s dad brings a lamb home to give away at the school fete. In the meantime, Laura takes care of the lamb and calls him Lollylegs. But by the end of the week, she can’t bear the thought of having to give him away. Laura sets about making money to buy as many raffle tickets as she can in the hope of winning him back. But will the plan to keep Lollylegs work?
