I helped buy a water buffalo. I was buying a book at the Reading Reptile, a Brookside area bookstore and cupcake shop in Kansas City, Missouri. On the checkout counter there was a donation container for Heifer International. With my donation and that of others, we bought a live animal for the purpose of ending a family's hunger and helping them out of poverty. Heifer International's strategy is "to pass on the gift. As people share their animals’ offspring with others – along with their knowledge, resources, and skills – an expanding network of hope, dignity, and self-reliance is created that reaches around the globe."
The pictures below, taken at the Reading Reptile, showcase imaginative artwork recreating book characters.
