What is Collywobble about?

Collywobble is the smallest and shakiest of Farmer Joe’s seven sheepdog puppies. While his brothers and sisters seem strong and brave, Collywobble is easily frightened. One snowy evening, Farmer Joe and Bess set off to bring the sheep down from the mountain, but darkness falls and they do not return. With his family in danger, Collywobble must find the courage to face the cold, search the mountain and rescue the ones he loves.
