The detail of the narration was excruciating. I kept skimming and skimming waiting for the story to develop and finally gave up.. Wonderful story of unspoken love, respect and partnership. luvbooks Kudos to Jon Katz. I love animals and to read a book from an animals perspective was marvelous. I smiled. I cried, my feelings travelled as Roses did. Trust and unspoken devotion can heal and raise us up. Loved Rose and her charges and I love this novel. Thank you Mr. Katz.

And when an epic blizzard hits the region, it will take all of Rose’s resolve, resourcefulness, and courage to help Sam save the farm and the creatures who live there.. She senses something else in the air as well: A storm is coming, but not like any of the ones she’s seen over the years. Rose is determined and focused, keeping the sheep out of danger and protecting the other creatures on the farm she calls home. But of all those she’s looked after since coming to the farm as a puppy, it is Sam, the farmer, whom she watches most carefully. Awoken one cold midwinter night during lambing season, Rose and Sam struggle into the snowy dark to do their work. The ever observant Rose has seen a change in her master of late, ever since Sam’s wife disappeared one day
