Real cowboys are gentle, patient, and creative as they move hundreds of cattle, make camp, and dream under the stars.

A new cow at the Barn Sanctuary named Buttercup is scared, angry, and does not want anything to do with the other animals, but when she gets caught in the fence they come her rescue and Buttercup learns that here all animals are family.

The story of the docile bull who would rather smell flowers than engage in the bullfights of Madrid conveys a timeless message.

Perfect for road trips or bedtime reading, story time, preschool, or homeschool. Entertaining for children and parents alike.

Perhaps some unexpected encouragement from a pack of "real" unicorns might be just the assurance...
