This promises to be the only book on sheep you will ever need! Packed full of detailed information, The Sheep Book for Smallholders covers every aspect of keeping sheep on a small scale. Beginning with a brief overview of the sheep industry, and the rise and fall of the artisan shepherd, the author has logically divided the book up into the shepherd's calendar, so that the sheep keeper knows what to expect with each season. All aspects of looking after the flock are covered, including selection, culling, nutrition, housing, lambing, grassland management, ailments and prevention. There are also sections on home slaughter and butcher, and, uniquely, processing the byproducts, including the fleece and keeping sheep for dairying. Unusually, the book also has a section on training sheepdogs. Supported by stunning photography and clear illustrations, as well as huge and useful appendices. This is a welcome addition to the smallholder's bookshelf, and is going to be a reference classic in years to come.

Following the beloved Sheep in a Jeep, this illustrated children’s book follows the rhyming misadventure of zany sheep on a pirate ship. It's time for bed but the sheep just can't settle down. Never fear, a trusty sheepdog is here to help. But what will it take to get these restless sheep to bed? A hug? A blanket? A drink of water? Will this dedicated collie ever get these bleating sheep to sleep? Perhaps only a daring pirate adventure will do the trick… From the author and illustrator behind Sheep in a Jeep, this sweet and silly bedtime tale is perfect for reading aloud to a demanding little one who doesn’t want to go to bed. “The spare text is easily mastered by the beginning reader, while adults reading this aloud will appreciate the tongue-twisters and rollicking rhymes.”—Publishers Weekly
