Nattie’s mouth was a little crooked. Her legs were slightly shorter than usual, and one horn was too straight, like a unicorn’s horn. But Mia thought Nattie was perfect.
In a read-aloud picture book for children who love animals, award-winning writer and sheep breeder Marlene M. Bell presents Nattie the lamb’s true story. MIA AND NATTIE is a heartwarming book that teaches readers about problem-solving, teamwork, and love.
On a visit to her grandma’s farm, eight-year-old Mia discovers a newborn, orphaned lamb outside in the cold and takes her to the laundry room, naming her Nattie. As she tries to nurse the lamb back to health, Mia discovers that Nattie is different from the other lambs and struggles to fit in with them as Mia does with other kids her age.
When her grandmother says she will sell Nattie to a neighbor, Mia must come up with a plan to keep her friend around—one that will show the family just how special Nattie truly is.

My thoughts on Mia and Nattie – One Great Team by Marlene M Bell
I fell in love with Nattie the first time I read this book. She is absolutely the sweetest little lamb. Her story will tug at every reader’s heartstrings, but especially those who grew up on a farm and know the heartache of losing an animal you consider a pet. Luckily Mia and Nattie work their magic, and the story has a wonderful ending.
Mia and Nattie: One Great Team by Marlene Bell will warm your heart when you read it.
This one short book will teach children and adults valuable life lessons while remaining an entertaining read. The author based the book on the true adventures of raising a bottle-fed lamb on her farm. Knowing this fact adds to the sweetness of the tale.
Mia learns perseverance, hard work, commitment, and caring will pay off in countless ways. Grandma learns that appearances are deceiving. Even the littlest creature on the farm can be helpful if they only find their place.
Even if you aren’t interested in the life lessons, the story itself is heartwarming, fun, and highly entertaining.
The entire book, from cover to cover, is beautiful. The illustrations are bright, vivid, and eye-catching. The pages are thick and glossy. It’s made to last for generations.
Mia and Nattie: One Great Team should be in every library!
I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.

Is Marlene Bell related to Kathy Reichs? Her author pic is a dead ringer! I thought maybe Ms. Reichs was now releasing children’s books under a nom de plume!
I am sure they aren’t the same person, but I don’t know about related. Ms Bell is an author & sheep farmer in East Texas. Astute observation though!
This sounds real cute, love the video.
