Review
When next door neighbours and best friends Rory and Trang convince their parents that they can look after a goat, they are in for some trouble and some fun.
But this is more than just a story about a goat! The boys have a wonderful friendship and their close ties to each other and their families really shines through.
But Jellybean the goat proves to be full of challenges, and this tests their friendship. With some help from their loving and supportive families, they realise the value of the bond that they have.
This is a great read about the responsibilities of owing a pet, learning about compromise and the importance of friends and family.
This is a perfect read for younger to middle primary readers.
