From the acclaimed author-illustrator of Floss comes a refreshing take on the story of a lost lamb.

One spring day, Little Baa frisks and runs in the field, leaving his Ma far behind. Soon he is lost and all alone. How will Ma ever find him? This reassuring tale features an adorable new character in Little Baa - plus, a cameo by one of the author's best-loved characters from previous stories, Floss the sheepdog!

Kim Lewis's book "The Shepherd Boy" was shortlisted for the 1991 Kate Greenaway Medal.
