Luning-Ning - Paperback

by Lenie Palor (Author)

As a young girl, Alipia grows up seeing lots of buffalo in her small village in the Philippines. Many families own buffalo and, in such a rural setting, the powerful animals are often essential to a family's livelihood.

Alipia is always fascinated by the buffalo. They are so strong and resourceful, yet peaceful, graceful animals. So when her great uncle offers her father another buffalo she is very excited and happy.

The buffalo is called Luning-Ning and for an unknown reason it is her uncle's least favourite. But the moment Alipia sees Luning-Ning, something special happens. It is almost like magic, and very quickly the two form a strong bond and understanding of each other. But little do they know that the great adventures are only just beginning!
