Moody Cow Learns Compassion / Kerry Lee MacLean

This delightful sequel to Moody Cow Meditates reintroduces Peter, aka Moody Cow, and his mischievous friend Bully. The boys encounter a snake named Jaws, and Peter watches as Bully revels in the deaths of the crickets he feeds the snake. Peter’s discomfort earns him a new nickname from Bully: “Coward Cow.” Luckily, Peter’s grandfather, the beloved old steer from Moody Cow Meditates, brings serenity as he gently teaches Bully to compassionately identify with other beings. The story ends with everyone sharing a laugh, even Jaws and the crickets! This book also includes two activities, compassionate cricket release and compassionate worm rescue, for parents and children.
