Summary:

"Meet Eno, an ordinary ostrich living in the Serengeti, a corner of the African savanna. But theres something you should know: Even ordinary ostriches are extraordinary. And that includes Eno. I know what youre thinking. Youre thinking that ostriches are just overgrown chickens with ridiculous necks, skinny legs, and bad attitudes. And youre right! Believe it or not, that neck helps ostriches run at supersonic speeds. Those skinny legs can kill a lion dead. And these are only a few weapons in Enos arsenal of superfierce survival skillsEno has Colossal Orbs of Telescopic Vision, the Impossible Ever-Flow Lung, the Egg of Wonder, and so many more. Youre still not convinced that ostriches are superpowered, are you? Well, you dont know ostriches yet. But you will."-- provided by publisher.
