Hoppy the Hereford Finds a Forever Home

When Hoppy's mother gets frightened and runs away, she leaves her little calf scared and cold in the middle of the night. But the farmer is there watching. Scooping Hoppy up he takes her home in the back of his wife's new car. Next Hoppy is taking a bath in the farmer's tub and meeting her new family. Hoppy has lots of things in common with the farmer's son Joey like being a little wobbly and drinking out of a bottle. The farm family showers her with friendship and devotion and lets her know she is loved.
