This is wonderfully funny book of friendship in which Hettie, the hairy Highland cow ends up having all sorts of insects and animals living in her fur throughout the seasons. From caterpillars and butterflies to birds and hares, Hettie looks after them all but as Spring arrives her friends become quite wriggly and fidgity and for Hettie that's the final straw. But just how does she get rid of everyone? Charming and funny, not only is it a story showing the importance of tolerance and friendship but it also provides a lesson in seasons too. The text is brought to life by Jo Allan's lively illustrations.
This is the sequel to Hungry Hettie .
Hettie the Highland cow has lots of hair to keep her warm and cosy. But other animals want to be cosy too...In springtime two blackbirds stop by and build their nest in Hettie's hair. She's a cow, not a hedge! In summertime some butterflies lay their eggs in Hettie's fur, which grow into wriggling caterpillars.
