About the Book
BLACK AND WHITE Hurrah! Johnnie Green shouted. And he dashed out of the woodshed and ran to the barnyard as fast as he could scamper. There was a good reason for his high spirits and his haste. His father had just told him he might have a lamb for a pet. Farmer Green followed Johnnie at a slower pace. When he reached the barnyard fence Johnnie was already on the other side of it, trying to catch a certain black lamb. Now, Johnnie Green was spry; but this black lamb was sprier. Whenever Johnnie thought he had the lamb the black rascal always managed to slip out of his clutches. Ill help you, said Farmer Green. And climbing the fence, he soon had the lively lamb cornered and caught. Then Johnnie lost no time in taking his new pet in his own arms. Im going to call him—— Johnnie began, as his father let go of the struggling black armful. But Johnnie Green never finished what he had started to say. The first thing he knew the lamb had squirmed out of his arms and was running up the lane. Johnnie straightened up and gazed after him in dismay. I dont believe Ill call him anything, he murmured, half to himself. Farmer Green couldnt help laughing. And then, noticing a very disappointed look on Johnnies face, he said, Cheer up, Johnnie! That lamb is the youngest one on the farm, but hes too big for a pet. Hes a wild one. Let him run with the flock and well see if we cant do something to make you feel happy. Well, Johnnie Green knew that when his father talked like that it was silly to be glum. So he cried, All right! And turning his back upon the black lamb, which was by this time almost up to the head of the lane, Johnnie walked back to the woodshed. The next day, when Farmer Green came home from a drive over the hill, Johnnie shouted Hurrah! once more. For lying on a bit of hay in the bottom of the buggy was a white lamb no more than half as big as the lively black scamp that had got away from Johnnie the day before. Johnnie Green didnt need to ask whose lamb this was. He knew at once that it was his own. Whered you get him? he demanded. At your uncles! his father explained. Johnnie lifted the white lamb out of the buggy and set him down gingerly upon the ground. And the white lamb didnt try to run off. He was only a tiny thing, with a very soft coat and a very pink nose. I wonder if hes hungry, said Johnnie Green. Ill get some corn and see if he wants anything. Youll have to feed him milk in a bottle, his father told him. He isnt weaned yet. Bring him into the woodshed! In a little while Johnnies father had found a babys bottle, which he filled with warm milk. Then all Johnnie had to do was to hold the bottle to his new pets mouth. The lamb did the rest. Im going to call him Snowball, Johnnie announced. And then he began to laugh. Look at his tail! he shouted. Hell switch it off if he isnt careful. For as Snowball drank the milk he jerked his stubby tail up and down at a great rate. Old dog Spot, who was stretched upon the woodshed threshold, gazed at Snowball with a lofty air....
