Über dieses E-Book

Little Fiona and her family live out in the country. Their neighbour is Mr Ronnie, a farmer who has lots of dairy cows. One of the cows is called Louise and she is Fiona ́s special friend. Fiona visits her friend every day and brings her fresh grass because soon Louise will have her first little calf: Max. But when Max is born, and Fiona goes to see Max and Louise in their box, Max has disappeared! Fiona goes looking for him and finds him locked up in a tiny little box on another part of the farm. Why are Max and Louise not together? Why isn't Max allowed to have Louise's milk? And what are the grownups trying to hide? "Max and Fiona" is about friendship, courage, believing in yourself, freedom and milk. It shows that you can change something if you believe in it!

Autoren-Profil

Writer| Actor & Speaker Marco Mehring from Osnabrueck, Germany. Since its publication in Germany, "Max & Fiona" (German original title: "Max & Fine") has become one of the most successful books about farm life. It is the first children's book worldwide to show where milk comes from, what really happens to farm animals and what the connection between milk and meat is. The quality of the writing and the expressive illustrations by Kerstin Falkenstein make this book a potential children's classic. "Max & Fiona" is imaginative, caring and suitable for children, as well as providing a gripping read for adults and being ideal to read out loud. It presents a thorny, socially relevant topic that is of concern to everyone - the milk industry - without ever succumbing to ideological lecturing. "Max and Fiona" is about friendship, courage, believing in yourself, freedom and milk. It shows that you can change something if you believe in it! www.maxundfine.de
