Publisher Description:

This peek into the lives at Grayson Farm follows a delightful goat named Henry who seems desperate to know what he is -- only to discover (with the help of his animal friends) that it's who he is that counts.

The audience (not only children but also adults) will find this a charming and insightful tale featuring beautiful, detailed illustrations and a relatable storyline. The reader will be delighted with the many colorful farm animals with distinct personalities all their own.

The repetition of Henry's question (What am I?") and his self-reflection leads the reader toward the unexpected ending and moral of this story: that it's one's worth that counts, regardless of what one is labeled.

Young children will enjoy the "find the rabbit" feature on every page as they travel throug this beautiful book with Henry.

Henry's Discovery is the perfect bedtime story that ends with Henry falling asleep snuggled with the adorable brown and white bunny, realizing that he is a friend...and that is the best thing of all to be.
