Synopsis

Paddy is different from all the other kids. He cannot baa. The senior goats are worried and it is decided that if Paddy cannot baa by his first birthday he must leave the herd and fend for himself on the Caribbean island. Downcast but not defeated, Paddy sets out on his own. Discover who Paddy meets on his travels and what happens when a ferocious hurricane looms on the horizon turning our silent refugee into a heroic goat who saves an island! Using computer generated artwork, Jo-Anne Mason tells an instructive, touching and exciting Caribbean children's story in her own words and pictures.
