It's a really good book and also it's about wildlife, which I love. I like how it's about dogs because my granny has two dogs.

I loved it! Jasmine was so clever but Sky the Border Collie is still my favourite character because he rescued Jasmine and learned commands very quickly.

I liked this book because its main character is one of my favourite animals. Sky was a sheepdog and a very cute puppy. He saved jasmines life when she hurt her foot. He got Tom to help rescue her.

I love Sky. This book tells to respect animals and look after them with love and kindness. I think age 7-12 will like this. If you think different that's perfectly fine with me.

This book is great! I love it! It's awesome funny and makes you laugh! It's about a mistreated little puppy abandoned on Jasmine's farm. it takes all of her skill to save him! I would really recommend it to my friends!

I think that this book is very good, especially the bit when Sky is better and he isn't just a skeleton with a few pieces of fur on him. Sky is my favourite character because he actually saved Jasmine's life by going to get help when they were alone in a field next to a wood with Jasmine's throbbing ankle. The only part I didn't like was when Jasmine's mum said that Sky could die in a few days if they didn't treat him properly. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes animals or wishes to be an animal rescuer like Jasmine and Tom when they're older.

My favorite character is a sheepdog called Sky. I like the dog in the story. I would recommend that someone would like to enjoy the book I read.

The book is fictional. The best bit of the book is Jasmine foot is swollen and her trained dog called Sky ran to get help, she went to her best friend called Tom, and Tom called her dad and Dad took her to the hospital. Jasmine had to have a cast and crutches.
Countess Fandango Wellington 04.01.2022
Sky was my favourite character because she was brave with Jasmine.
Marshal Fidget Dalmatian 20.08.2021
