Booktalk: After a blissful babyhood being cared for by her loving mother, Pangolina ventures out alone into the forest to become an independent adult, helped along by wise, older animal companions, including a civet and a bat. But one day cruel hunters trap Pangolina, putting her into a cage along with her friends, and bring them to a market to be sold as wild game. Pangolina is especially vulnerable, since her scales are prized by humans who believe they have curative powers. To the rescue comes a small girl who knows that pangolins are friendly fellow creatures who have feelings too, and who convinces her mother to buy Pangolina and set her free.
Snippet: Once I was startled when a large creature — a bit like a fox with wings — flew low over us. My mother told me not to worry because it was only a fruit bat.
Almost every night, Bat flew past us with his pals, and we became good friends.
