Synopsis
The humorous adventures of a boy and his treasured toy bull continue in this sequel to a Boston Globe-Horn Book award winner.
One day Jamie is protecting his best friend Angus from a rambunctious friend, and the next he decides to try some activities that are "fun for one" — but how long will he be able to withstand his beloved toy’s hurt expression when he leaves him behind? The imaginative Jamie and his coveted Highland bull, endearing stars of the award-winning Jamie and Angus Stories, return in six charming tales imbued with the gentle, dry humor of Anne Fine’s storytelling and Penny Dale’s illustrative warmth.
