Description: In June of 2002, Kimeli returns to his village and the Maasai people in Kenya to share the tragedy he experienced on September 11, 2001 as he was in New York City. Kimeli’s heart was pierced by this horrible event in history and was moved to share his sacred cow with aching American hearts. Not only does Kimeli offer his only cow, others join in. It will be hard to finish this story with dry eyes. May we be humbled by these gracious givers from Kenya and learn lessons from them. Just a Heads Up: This story has a direct connection to September 11, 2001.

Very young children eat their books, literally devouring their contents. This is one reason for the scarcity of first editions of Alice in Wonderland and other favorites of the nursery.
