I've been reading Three Bags Full by Leonie Swann. It's a murder mystery but the protagonists are sheep whose shepherd has been killed  I'm only a little ways in but I think the characterization of the sheep is really quite delightful and complex. The border collie is a minor character. It's a fun, light read. Not really sure how accurate her descriptions are, but it seems like she did her research. http://www.amazon.com/Three-Bags-Full-Sh...5775&sr=8-1

I keep meaning to check that out. It went the rounds way back when I first got into sheep and II can't tell you how many people said I just HAD to read it. I have a contrary personality so I think subconsciously I said, "Well, I just WON'T then." Silly, I know.

I read it a year or so ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.
