Aprašymas

A gentle story from the Philippines about kindness--with a lovable baby rhino character, and a strong argument for protecting the environment and making change.

Right in the middle of the crowded, bustling city, Maya meets a baby rhinoceros. "Excuse me," he says politely, "I am lost."

Maya is sure she can help the baby rhino find his home, where there are tall trees, plants with giant, yummy leaves and where the ground is covered in delicious grass. They walk and walk, but can find only streets and buildings--nowhere a little rhino can feel at home.

Maya doesn't give up. She takes the baby rhino to her own home and gathers plants and flowers to help him feel at home. Kind neighbors help by bringing more. The polite little rhino is glad. "You made me my own jungle," he says. In the morning he is gone, and there is a "thank you" message from his mummy. Maya is happy for him and hopes he will come back one day to visit. But she knows she must make changes to her crowded, polluted city.

Together Maya and her neighbors get to work and create a green city environment where people are happy and where a baby rhino might also feel at home... and perhaps return to visit Maya.
