Publisher's Synopsis
Deep in the African bush, the young animals are all practising hard: the baby stork is trying to fly, the baby chameleon to change colour and the baby fruit bat to hang from a branch. But Shukudu the baby rhino can't practise being a rhinoceros, because he has no horns. "Horns take time to grow. Be patient," says his mother. How Shukudu learns patience, and gains both a splendid pair of horns, and the friendship of his fellow creatures, is told with warmth and humour.
