His marsh stood by a dairy farm, which was lucky, as Sterling was obsessed with cows. He broke the farmer's fence, ran with them in the paddock, andmade new friends - he didn't want to leave! But the farmer wasn't so happy with Sterling... Would he find his way back to his beloved cows?

Also in the series is Onyx, based on the reintroduction of wolves of Yellowstone Park. Fluffles, the koala who held strong through a bushfire. And Talala, the leopard cub who found her own family.
A tale of friendship and bravery despite the odds, this tale will make you laugh and may even bring a tear to your eye.
