Picture a happy cow,Cowleen, and her best friend, Egreta, the egret on a fantastic voyage from Jamaica, West Indies, to the Galapagos Islands on a mission to save the bird world from the vane but beautiful Macaws. Sail along with Cowleen and Egreta as they journey through the Panama Canal from Jamaica to the Galapagos, assisted by Egreta's pal, Noise, the two hundred year old tortoise. This is a fun filled chapter book that includes not only fantasy but also some biology, geography and light social commentary on the Caribbean and the Galapagos. A tale to be enjoyed if you are eight or eighty!
