About this listen

A tiny tale for all ages!

Scarlet is a German Shepherd who worries in a way that dogs don't normally do. She oversees a farm of strange animals, with tricky chickens, laughing pigeons, and soldier pigs. But Scarlet begins to notice unsettling changes on the farm.

One day, a migrating swift seeks shelter from a storm under the farmhouse roof. Hoping to ease her doggy mind, Scarlet asks the bird if, during its travels, it will search for something beyond the farm that doesn't change.

The swift agrees, visiting Scarlet each year as it migrates in the spring and autumn. On these visits, Scarlet shares stories about the changing farm, and the swift shares stories from its search. But both their growing friendship and the search are put at risk when a world war reaches the farm.
