Download or read book Baby Rhino Moreno the Fight for Justice 1 written by Mr. Rajesh Shah and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-02-17 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is a fantasy dream that turns into a fictional reality of an amazing love for the cherished rhinoceros and also an elephant. Basically, I contrive a tale of three lifelong buddies: a baby rhino Moreno, a baby elephant Ganesh, and a baby robin, Robbie, all lovingly known as the Three Amigos. Moreno, upon learning from his mother, Sita, of an attack, was triggered into the belief of avenging the barbaric slaughter of his dear papa, Kifu, and also his buddy Ganesh’s papa, Rajah, by a trio of poachers using the assistance of his close mate Robbie. Robbie has a loyal mate named Steady Eddie, a golden eagle. The story then develops from there whereby Eddie gathers together his entourage of faithful subjects to devise an exciting attack on these dreadful pests. The fairy-tale story has what everyone likes where the hero is the winner annihilating the villains. There is one idea that I love of disgracing these intruders by simply targeting their dignity by cutting off their noses.

Download or read book Rhino in the House written by Daniel Kirk and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the award-winning author of the bestselling Library Mouse series comes a biographical picture book about the true story of rhino champion Anna Merz and the black rhinoceros Samia. With a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Lewa Downs Conservancy, this engaging story is perfect for animal lovers, animal rights enthusiasts, and fans of Me . . . Jane. When Anna Merz traveled to East Africa, she became appalled at the rampant poaching that took place there, specifically toward the black rhinoceros. Anna devoted her life to protecting the wildlife of the region, founding a reserve in Kenya called Lewa Downs to care for them. Anna kept a watchful eye on the animals, especially the rhinos. One day, Anna found a small black rhino calf, likely abandoned by its mother. So she nurtured the calf, named it Samia, fed it special formula, and even let it sleep in her bed. Everywhere Anna went Samia was never far behind. The two became so close, in fact, that Anna soon learned how rhinos communicate with one another. Anna was able to distinguish the rhino’s many different grunts and what she meant by them: “Snort! Snuff,” cried Samia (“This is fun!”); “Hoo-hoo-hoo!” she called (“I’m coming!”). But with time, Samia got bigger . . . and bigger . . . and bigger—to the point where she couldn’t fit inside Anna’s house any longer. It was time for Anna to make the tough decision she always knew she would have to make at some point or another: She would need to reintroduce Samia to the wild so she could lead her life with the rest of her kind. Richly illustrated with pen, ink, and watercolors, Daniel Kirk’s first nonfiction picture book brings awareness to wildlife protection and fosters further understanding of animal rescue and welfare, positioned in a sensitive way that’s appropriate for young readers. Kirk traveled to Kenya to see the reserve firsthand and his photographs grace the back matter, which includes an author’s note and bibliography.
