Three Bags Full: A Sheep Detective Story is by Leonie Swann. A absolutely charming fantasy novel that is also a mystery. In the Irish village of Glennkill there is a shepherd named George and his beloved flock of sheep. When George is found murdered, pinned to the ground with a spade, his flock decides it is their duty to discover who killed him, so justice can be done. This novel is delightfully funny and also gives some great insight into human nature as seen and understood by sheep. Lovers of magical realism, mystery, and humor will love this book.
Ratings: 10th grade - 9 out of 10 - P (profanity).
