Overview
This book shares the message that just by understanding someone you can reach their maximun potential! All of this explained just by a girl and her favourite cow :)

About the Author

    Hi guys!  My name is David Álvarez and I'm a 28 years old artist from Costa Rica. I've worked as an animator for over 8 years on kids series like Artzooka, Elias Rescue Boat and Talking Tom. I 've always loved doing animation, but it took me years to figure out that what I really loved was the whole process of telling stories! So this one comes as my first self writen and illustrated children's book. And together we can make the production of this book a reality!


The Story

"Mu, my Favourite Cow" tells the story of a little girl named Flurina and her favourite cow Mu.

All the cows on the farm make the best milk in the whole village, except for Mu, and is up to Flurina to figure out how to make that happen!

Her grandpa thinks Mu is lazy, but Flurina thinks there must be something more to it. In the end, she learns a valuable lesson about everyone responds in a positive way just by being understood.

The book shares the message of understanding how we are all motivated by different things, and how we can get the best out of someone by the simple act of understanding them.

Why Indiegogo

I've brought this project to Indiegogo in order to raise funds to print and distribute "Mu, my favourite Cow" to children around the globe. I've been working hard on this book for the past year, and it is now completely finished and ready to print. I'm using Indiegogo to be able to reach all the people who's been following the proccess of making this book since I first started.

 

 

How you can help!

You can pre-order the book with $25 or you can pitch in $5 to help us fund the production of the book. Also, you can always help by spreading the word on social media, by telling your friends, family, neighbors, educators, co-workers, librarians, and everyone about this book! 
I'm looking to raise $5,000 which is needed to print enough books so they can actually be affordable. The more I print, the cheaper the book :)

          

Risks and Challenges

The first test print of the book was succesful! Everything looks good so now is just a matter of printing all the copys and ship them out to you. Delays may occur since after the shipping I'm no longer in control of the book, but I will be on top of everything to ensure you will get your book!
