Brave Benny
Summary
Benny the bat always did what was right; hiding during the day and hunting at night. His bed was a tree and he slept upside down, in a quaint little forest just outside of town. Each night at dusk he'd stretch and he'd yawn, then drop out of bed, and be home before dawn. By daybreak the bats would be sleeping away, but bored little Benny just wanted to play. He wished to discover the world in the light; he was tired of darkness, fed up with the night. Then one dewy morning, he passed by his tree; he was nervous, but eager, about what he would see.... What will Brave Benny discover on his adventure? Find out in this wonderful rhyming children's book, a perfect bedtime story for ages four and up, and independent listeners ages seven and up.

Courageous Conner
Summary
Little Conner was born on the third day of June to a proud mama cow one warm afternoon. His mom gently cleaned him, as a good mother would, then he wiggled and wobbled, until finally he stood. She gave him soft kisses on his velvety head, then faintly he mooed; Conner now needed to be fed. He found mama’s milk; it was pleasingly sweet. When his tummy was full, he took a nap at her feet. But his dreams were cut short by the cries of another; someone was taking a calf from his mother! Conner stayed silent as he cowered in fear; he looked up at his mom as the human drew near. It was then that he noticed that his mama looked sad. He was very confused, but he knew this was bad. Although he attempted to blend in with the hay, the man spotted Conner and whisked him away.... What will courageous Conner do now? Can he get back to the mother he holds dear? Find out in this lyrical, rhyming story from author Heather Leughmyer, part of her Kindness to Animals series. Perfect for ages six and up and excellent for both humane education and library and family story time.

Elyse's Escape
Summary
Under the big top, Elyse was born; from birth she was trained to obey. She would travel the country, perform for the crowds, but never got to play. Her costumes were extravagant; she wore feathers on her head. But she didn’t have a family, or a warm and cozy bed. Each night Elyse would fall asleep exhausted and forlorn, wishing for the mom she hadn’t seen since she was born. One evening when the crowds were gone and she was tethered for the night, Elyse noticed for the first time that her ropes were rather tight. She wasn’t quite the fragile baby that she used to be; she was stronger now, but could she break her binds and easily run free? Find out in this lyrical rhyming story from author Heather Leughmyer, part of her Kindness to Animals Series. Perfect for ages five and up, and excellent for both humane education and library and family story time.
