Bookroo's summary

Little Burro loves her cozy canyon, but when her herd ventures to a mysterious lake, she hesitates. Urged by her mother, she reluctantly follows and uncovers a world of unexpected fun. Will Little Burro embrace the thrill of new experiences, or retreat to the familiar comfort of her canyon? Join her journey and find out how stepping out of her comfort zone changes everything.

From the publisher

In the vein of his popular picture books “Grandfather Buffalo “and “Raccoon on His Own,” Jim Arnosky s “Little Burro “features a lovable new character who finds out that trying new things does not have to be scary. Little Burro s canyon has everything she needs it s breezy and cool on a hot day, and warm and cozy at night. One day, her band of burros decides to travel to the lake. She does not want to go, but finally follows when her mother calls out to her. When they arrive, Little Burro is surprised to find that the lake is just as nice as her canyon and even more fun!”
