About the Book

A child's natural curiosity sometimes makes them feel like they want to be someone else, or at least in that other person's world. Through the story of an unlikely friendship between a cow and an ibis, a child can learn that he or she can experience the life of someone else through friendship. Sharing what the other may not have can make the life of both friends more complete. And at the same time learn to appreciate the good things in their own lives, particularly the warmth of a loving family.
