The second book in a warm and beautifully observed farm adventure series from Nicola Baker, star of Our Farm in the Dales. Perfect for readers 8+ and fans of Jacqueline Wilson, Michael Morpurgo, Dick King Smith and The Snow Foal. With stunning illustrations from Rachael Dean throughout.

Ten-year-old Ava has swapped city life for mud, wellies and animals on Whistledown Farm. With the arrival of Autumn and as the leaves begins to fall, she rescues a tawny owl called Ruby. As Ava helps Ruby, she soon realises that learning to love means letting go as well . . .

‘Baker is a gifted writer, and her bucolic adventure harks back to classic farm stories such as those written by Dick King Smith and Michael Morpurgo’ The Bookseller
