  A fifth title in the series of books about Sophie. Small but very determined, Sophie loves animals and is going to be a lady farmer when she grows up. In her special piggy-bank, labelled farm money , she has now collected #12.60p. But it's not enough; she needs to think of some ways of raising more funds. For Sophie, it's the start of a busy and eventful couple of months, in which she visits a farm, makes a big impression in the school concert, celebrates her seventh birthday, starts riding lessons and forms a binding business attachment! Dick King-Smith, a former winner of the Guardian Children's Fiction Award and voted Children's Author of the Year in 1991, is the author of five more stories about Sophie: Sophie's Snail , Sophie's Tom , Sophie Hits Six , Sophie in the Saddle and Sophie's Lucky . He has also written Farmer Bungle Forgets , H Prince , The Whistling Piglet , All Pigs are Beautiful , I Love Guinea Pigs and The Finger-Eater . David Parkins has illustrated No Problem , Tick-Tock , Prowlpuss (shortlisted for the 1994 Kurt Maschler Award) and the Sophie stories.
