Product Description

Synopsis
In this exciting follow-up to Owen and Mzee, the New York Times best-selling story about an orphaned baby hippo named Owen and the 130-year-old giant turtle, Mzee, the authors explore the language of love, friendship and nurturance that these two incredible creatures share with one another. This book traces their first year together, including their adorable playful ways and the unique 'language' that they have developed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real delight, 2 Oct 2007
By Janet Cowie - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Owen the baby hippo was orphaned in floods at the time of the Asian tsunami. He was rescued and brought to a new home by Dr. Paula Kahumbo, director of Haller Park Conservation Area near Mombasa. Almost immediately he encountered Mzee, a centenarian tortoise, and they have become constant companions, wallowing together in wonderful mud and munching on vegetation surrounding their pool. The book has been created by an American child (with her father's help) and features great photographs of Owen's rescue and his new life with Mzee. It's delightful!
