Maisie Moo the Curious Coo & Friends

When a friend is hurting, what can you do? Sometimes the kindest thing is to stay close, be patient, and give them space.

One sunny morning at Totally Wingin' It Farmstead, Norma Jean bumps her horn on the gate - THUMP! - and it is badly hurt. After a trip to the vet clinic in the big red trailer, Norma Jean comes home with a bandage and a very grumpy heart.

Maisie Moo, the curious little coo, doesn't understand. Did she do something wrong? With help from wise old Lulu the hen, Maisie learns that when we hurt, we sometimes need quiet and time to heal. So Maisie becomes Norma Jean's gentle guardian. She politely sends away the playful goats, the bouncy sheep, the honking geese, the barking dogs, and the scratching chickens, until her friend is ready for company again.

Inside this heartwarming picture book, young readers will discover:

• Why friends sometimes get grumpy when they're hurt - and why it's not their fault
• How to show kindness through patience, gentleness, and quiet company
• That respecting a friend's need for space is a form of love
• A calm, reassuring look at a vet visit and daily wound care, with caring helpers who explain everything they do

With playful sound words to read aloud (RUMBLE, CLOMP, PITTER-patter, HONK!), a cozy farm cast of animals, and a sweet ending, this story is perfect for bedtime, classrooms, and anyone teaching empathy, emotional awareness, and friendship to little ones.

Based on the real animals of Totally Wingin' It Farmstead.
