What is The Arrival about?

Jenny Miles lives with her family on a sheep farm in the Scottish Borders, where money is always short and every animal must earn its keep. When the family sheepdog has a litter, one tiny puppy is born with a twisted leg. Jenny cannot bear to lose him and persuades her parents to let her keep him. Named Jess, the puppy may never become a working sheepdog, but Jenny soon discovers that his courage, loyalty and intelligence make him truly special.
