"Grandfather
Buffalo" by Jim Arnosky
 "Grandfather Buffalo is the oldest
bull in the heard. Whenever the herd moves on, he is always a
little behind."
"But when a female
buffalo gives birth, he is there to protect her. And when the
new calf is born, the old buffalo is there to nudge him along.
The youngster's liveliness puts Grandfather Buffalo to the test,
but the calf learns quickly that whether the herd is braving
a dust storm or stopping for a rest, the best place to be is
right by Grandfather Buffalo's side."
"A grandfather himself,
Jim Arnosky shows the stuggles faced in nature by both young
and old, and the tender bonds that form across generations."
