Publisher Comments:

You have sheep of your very own, and you have dozens of questions:

* Can I get my sheep to come when I call?

* What kind of pasture and home must my sheep have?

* What shall I give my sheep to eat?

* Can I feed my baby lamb from a bottle?

* How can I help my sheep stay healthy?
