Itsy Bitsy and Teeny Weeny / Robbyn Smith van Frankenhuyzen / 32 pages

One spring triplets are born to an old ewe on Hazel Ridge Rescue Farm.  The ewe rejects the smallest, weakest lamb and Robbyn realizes she will have to care for the baby herself if she is to survive.  A farmer brings her a fawn that was nearly run over.  Both are kept inside the house and given bottles until their antics prove they are ready to return outdoors.  A mishap with a fence reminds Robbyn that wild animals are meant to be free.
