In a pasture near the sea, a flock of egrets lives with a herd of cows. Each day when the flock flies out to explore, one young egret stays behind. He is afraid to leave because he might get lost and never find his dear friend Cow again. But Cow knows there are wonderful sights to be seen and is determined that her friend will explore like the other birds. This warm and witty story about adventure and friendship is the perfect book for any young reader facing separation anxiety or new-experience jitters.
