What do you do when you can’t cheer yourself up?

Mr. Cow is in the same predicament. His adorable comrades try their best to make him smile, but wise Mother Hen succeeds by reminding him to pause, look around, and appreciate the little things. The story line is centered on cultivating gratitude and empathy in children—Gratitude as expressed by Mr. Cow and Empathy by his friends. 

Gratitude and empathy taught through social interactions and stories, such as this, are integral to the development and happiness of children. Fulfillment grows from the seeds of gratitude. Human connection spreads in the roots of empathy.
