Sophie in the Saddle

By Dick King-Smith

New-look reissues of the ever-popular series about the animal-loving Sophie.

Small, but very determined, Sophie loves animals and is going to be a farmer when she grows up. In this book she gets a dog that she calls “Puddle”, makes friends with a Vietnamese pot-bellied pig and has her first ride on a pony!

  • Redesigned and relaunched, these lifelong classics will continue their exceptional sales, having sold sold over 1 million copies to date.
