Introduction -- Angel's story -- Potato's story -- Bueller's story."Angel the miniature zebu calf couldn't even stand months after she was born.

What do these three animals have in common? They all overcame the impossible. Luckily, Angel, Potato, and Bueller all had the help of supportive humans to help them beat the odds -- from vets and foster parents to their very own forever homes! These three inspiring true stories show that with a little love and kindness -- and a lot of hard work -- we can get through anything together. Each short story in this collection is the perfect length for middle-grade readers. This book also includes a 16-page full-color insert, featuring photos of all three animals.
