My name is Catrine and I am in 3rd class. I read the book “The Little Lamb who Led” by Katie O Donoghue. The story happens one sunny morning on a farm near the mountains in Ireland. The main characters in the story are Little Lamb, Mummy Sheep, Hoppy Hare, Kerry Cow, Red Grouse, Great Goat and White Tailed Eagle. Little Lamb was separated from her Mummy and went up the mountain to go find her.
Little Lamb made lots of friends who helped her along the way. It is a story of bravery, overcoming fears and the kindness of others. I liked the characters in the book and the determination of the little lamb to find her Mummy. It encouraged me to be brave in life. I cannot imagine being separated from my Mummy. Although it was sad at the beginning when the little lamb lost her Mummy, there was a happy ending.
I would recommend this book to my friends and for people who think they cannot do something and want to give up. Children from age 6 -10 would enjoy this book a lot. There are some lovely lessons in the story like how to be brave and keep going. The book encouraged me a lot. I would rate the book 9/10.
