Sophie is Seven

Ever since she was four years old, Sophie has wanted to be a lady farmer. She has been collecting animals, and so far her menagerie consists of snails, centipedes, a white rabbit, a black cat and a puppy named Puddle. Now Sophie is saving money in her piggy bank to buy her own farm, but when she adds it up she only has u12.60. She must think of ways to raise more funds! This is the start of a hectic couple of months for Sophie, in which she visits a farm, makes a big impression in the school concert, takes riding lessons, forms a business attachment and becomes convinced that a pony would be the ideal gift for her seventh birthday. As ever, she is a very busy girl!
