Dick King-Smith OBE dies (88)
« on: 05 January 2011, 22:39:20 »
.....war veteran, farmer and author of many wonderful animal-character stories that delighted a generation of young and old; including the book, "The Sheep-Pig" (that inspired the film "Babe").

Thank you and bless you for your many gifts and talents, Dick: That`ll do, Pig! :-*
