Margot and Milligan - Curious as Cats | Austin Macauley Publishers

When Margot first visits her grandparent’s farm, she and her dog Milligan aren’t that keen on venturing out to meet all the animals. Instead, they play together in the safety of the garden, watching the animals from behind the fence. However, this only makes the newcomers more interesting for the farm animals and they want to meet these strangers as soon as possible!

Still Margot and Milligan aren’t quite ready to get up close. When Pa finally coaxes Margot out onto the farm, she asks him a stream of questions. Eventually, she discovers that it’s not only cats who are inquisitive creatures…there’s a much bigger animal which is far more curious!
