When you are bred to be eaten, freedom is your only hope. Set on a farm on Kangaroo Island, South Australia, Graeme Brasher's The Wild Grass is the tale of twin lambs' struggle to escape their fate. Hope and Spring live alongside the human family who own them and the wild animals on the periphery of the farm. Feral cats and scavenger crows threaten but it is the humans who care for them that pose the gravest threat. The farmer's daughter, Sam, befriends them, but she has her own problems. When flooding leads to plans for the early dispatch of the lambs to market, the twins are forced to make choices that mean the difference between life and death.
