Summary

**This program is read by Nicholas Ralph, star of the PBS Masterpiece series** "Nicholas Ralph's readings of Herriot's stories are as comforting an experience as the show, and even more immersive." — The Houston Chronicle A tie-in to the PBS Masterpiece series and Christmas special, available on streaming and home video.
