a Donald Farmer fable...

There's a new girl in town. Her name is LITTLE BO CREEP. And if you're not nice then you won't make a peep! All Bo wants is to find her lost sheep. Is that too much to ask? But she keeps meeting people who want to trick her and do very bad things. Good thing that Bo has a pet named RUFUS. When people hurt Bo, Rufus makes them sorry. VERY SORRY. So be nice to Bo and you'll live happily ever after. But if you're bad, she'll make you very, VERY sad!
