Summary:
A delightful tale inspired by the true story of a brave goat
war
hero. Perfect for fans of Finding Winnie and Rescue and Jessica. During World
War
I, a goat named Billy was adopted by a platoon of soldiers and made his way across the ocean to be part of the
war
effort. Billy trained with the soldiers, was smuggled across the ocean, got snuck into the frontlines in a box of oranges, ate some secret documents and was arrested for treason, got trench foot, head-butted soldiers into a trench and saved them from a shell, came back home a decorated
war
hero. This charming true story follows Sergeant Billy from his small prairie town to the trenches of World
War
I and back, through harrowing moments, sad moments, moments of camaraderie and moments of celebration. This unforgettable goat and the platoon that loved him will capture your heart!
