- Abstract
- en_US In the pampas of South America, a doe gives birth to the lovely fawn Florita. She reviews with Florita the deer rules about avoiding things like alligators and poisonous leaves. As she learns to play on her own, Florita discovers a bee-hive and loves the honey dripping outside it. Mother warns her but Florita returns to the hive. Finding no honey, she knocks the hive to get some honey. Bees sting her all over. She splashes her face in water, but her eyelids swell up and she cannot open her eyes. Mother deer searches for her and finds her and takes her to Pedro the animal doctor. He puts ointment on Florita's eyes and wraps her head in a bandage. Florita recovers. "Listen to your parents and follow what they say." The book's images dress the animals in garb proper to their South American ambience: the images are quite engaging!
