Wonderful photos illustrate this book about a lamb who becomes a pet and companion to a little girl.
What's good about it: Unlike many children's books about farm animals, there's nary a mention of wool coats or mutton dinners. A farmed animal is presented as an individual, rather than simply a source of food or fiber. The bond between the child and her pet is touching.

The pictures are nice but all of these books are monotonous and essentially the same tired concept about children having pets. while there are variations in each story there's really nothing all that impressive about any of them. Even the cute pictures get monotonous!

Oh my lord this book is precious. The photos are amazing, SO adorable and perfect. The story is simple and there's no DRAMA. It's not fear or moral based, it's just a pleasant little story.
This book is a classic. I remember my mom reading it to me. Nakyla loves when I read this book. I particularly like that this book is all in photographs. The story is really sweet, too.
Great story with beautiful pictures showing Emmy's adventures with her little lamb before having to return her back to the farm.
Another one of my childhood favorites!!! Saved it to read to my daughter someday:)
As a child, this was a favorite book. I still love it! Great photos, great story.
I have read this to our kids a hundred times and it never gets old.
