In the charming and inspiring children’s story, Coco the Mooing Horse by Leila Summers, a unique horse pursues his dreams in the face of criticism and ridicule. On a lovely farm nestled at the foot of a hill lived an extraordinary horse. His name was Coco. Instead of neighing, Coco would moo like a cow and his moos could be heard across the whole farm. He was convinced he was born to sing and would practice every day. Coco continued to sing even when other animals mocked him. One day, he overheard some animals talking about an upcoming contest and decided to enter his name in the singing section. Coco’s story ends with a beautiful twist and contains a valuable lesson about believing in oneself and refusing to give up on one’s dreams.

Summers offers an amazing way of approaching a problem which involves taking the name of the issue, creating anagrams from the name, and writing captivating stories using the anagrams. This method is educative and encourages children to be imaginative and learn new words. They will also learn how to turn problems into opportunities for exploring their creativity. The story is enthralling and will motivate readers to follow their dreams and never give up. I found the main character funny and endearing. The illustrations are entrancing. They help tell the story and enliven it. Coco the Mooing Horse by Leila Summers is an unforgettable tale packed with practical and important lessons. Readers will love its lively characters and illustrations and will find the lessons applicable in their daily lives.
