Macca the Alpaca - by Matt Cosgrove (Hardcover)

About the Book

When Macca runs into a llama who tries to bully him, he uses his brains and his kindness to teach the llama some important lessons.

Book Synopsis

Macca the alpaca's days were happy and carefree until -- drama! -- a llama.

In this adorable, quirky picture book, Macca the alpaca loves splashing in puddles and gives the best cuddles. But when he bumps into a big bullying llama named Harmer (who's no charmer), Macca must prove the value of smarts and kindness.
