Hornbeam the Moose has great friends. He goes to a picnic with Eureka the Goose, has a sleepover with Cuddy the Cow, and gets swimming lessons from Adorabelle the Skunk. Hornbeam is all in!

It was ok. The story was simple - no lessons or big ah-ha moments. The illustrations were ok too. Nothing too eye-catching or alluring. A simple story about a moose and his animal friends.
