“A grey mouse called Jianjian came to the meadow to play. He saw a rainbow bridge in the sky and wished to go there to play but he just could not fly. A strong gust of wind brought an injured white crane into the meadow. Jianjian helped White Crane to recover. To return his kindness, she took him to the rainbow bridge to play. Jianjian found that there were many different kinds of fruits and vegetables in the rainbow bridge and he loved their tastes very much, and he felt very excited! Unfortunately, after they had come back to the meadow, White Crane had to leave Jianjian. Jianjian felt very sad but wished that White Crane would come back some day later to see him again.” This picture book is the second one of our Animal Stories Series.
