N2  - Pixie's defenses are up, and it's no wonder. She's been uprooted, the chickens seem to have it in for her, and now her beloved sister, Charlotte, has been stricken with polio. So it's not surprising Pixie lashes out. But her 
habit of making snap judgements -- and giving her classmates nicknames like "Rotten Ricky" and "Big-Mouth Berta" -- hasn't won her any friends. At least life on the farm is getting better with the delivery of a baby lamb. Raising him takes patience and understanding -- and this helps Pixie put things in better perspective. So too does mingling with her neighbors and finding that, with the war on she's not the only one missing someone. As Pixie pushes past her own pain, she begins to open up -- and can even laugh when she finds new friends where she least expects them
