A heartwarming illustrated children's story set in Fiji, where a kindhearted rooster follows a cry for help and discovers that compassion, courage, and creative thinking can lead to an unexpected friendship.
Bula is a curious Fijian rooster who loves exploring the colorful markets, tropical forests, and sunny streets of his coastal town. One afternoon, he must choose between following the tempting sight of his favorite coconuts and answering a frightened meow coming from an overgrown path.
There, Bula discovers a shy calico cat with her paw trapped inside a sharp tin can. He longs to help her, but he also remembers his mama's warning never to use his beak on hard or dangerous objects. As the cat grows weaker, Bula must stay calm, remember the lessons he has learned, and find a safe way to set her free.
What begins as one small act of kindness becomes a beautiful story of trust, belonging, and the unexpected friendships that can make a new place feel like home.
Perfect for young readers who enjoy animal adventures, tropical island settings, gentle problem-solving, Fijian culture, and stories about kindness, empathy, courage, and friendship.
Awarded the International Impact Book Award, Bula the Compassionate Rooster is a celebration of empathy, resilience, and the magic of friendship - perfect for young readers, classrooms, and families who believe in the power of doing good.
