The thirteenth in a fantastic series of animal stories for younger readers by Waterstones Children's Book Prize-shortlisted author Helen Peters, with beautiful black-and-white illustrations by Ellie Snowdon. Jasmine's dad is a farmer, and her mum is a large-animal vet, so Jasmine spends a lot of time caring for animals and keeping them out of trouble. Unfortunately, this often means she gets into hot water herself... When a newborn seal pup is abandoned on the riverbank, Jasmine and Tom are determined to care for her until she's old enough to be released. But there are other dangers for baby seals, and when Pearl's life is threatened again, nobody knows what the future will hold. Will Pearl ever be able to return to the sea? Brilliant storytelling that will make you laugh and cry, this is Dick King-Smith for a new generation. Perfect for readers aged seven and up. Check out Jasmine's other adventures: A Piglet Called Truffle, A Kitten Called Holly, A Sheepdog Called Sky and many more!

This is a perfect storybook for animal-loving people. I would recommend this book to anyone or anybody who loves animals. My favourite character is Jasmine who finds a seal pup and she take care of it with her family. Jasmine is 12 years old. This is a fiction book but has a little nonfiction too. This is a lovely story for animal-loveing humans

I really like animals so I chose this book to read. The person I liked best was Jasmine because she wanted to rescue Pearl and took great care of her. I would recommend this book to someone else.

This book was very adventurous because the children helped the seal pup very quickly. The book was fiction and I would recommend this book to anyone who likes helping out animals.

I liked it because someone who lived on a farm got to have two seal pups and she had to look after them and she got to be on TV! I would recommend it to someone who likes sea creatures, like my friend.
