Ali regularly takes Jack, a friendly and mischievous miniature Shetland pony, to visit people in care homes. One day they meet Billy, a boy who often visits his grandfather. Billy tells Ali about the wonderful care his grandfather is getting, but not everyone is fortunate. There just aren’t enough specialists nurses to go around. This gets Ali thinking how could Jack Brock help?
MY REVIEW
What a lovely thing to do! Ali and miniature Shetland pony Jack Brock love visiting people in Care Homes.
Ali and Jack Brock do a sponsored walk to raise money to help other people have a specialist nurse, in care homes.
People with many different breeds of dogs have paid to walk with Jack Brock, to raise as much money as possible.
The dogs cause, muddy, scenes of laughter. All children love stories with animals in, will fall in love with miniature Shetland pony Jack Brock, and the good things that Jack the Shetland pony helps with.
