Mini–the youngest member of the adorable meerkat family–is feeling excited to be about to leave his burrow for the first time. He feels exhilarated to see the surface with the first light of the day. He then stands on his rear legs, has a sunbath with his family and plays games with his siblings. But all of a sudden, an ominous shadow appears, then draws nearer and grows larger. This causes so much panic and puts such fear in him… It doesn’t take him long to realize that the shadow belongs to a massive eagle. He, along with the rest of his family, escapes to the safety of their burrow and, all night long, he tries to figure out how he can solve this new problem in their lives. Eventually, Mini comes up with a smart plan and his family loves it. Brilliant and fun in equal parts, his plan does grant them freedom from the eagle’s menace indefinitely. The Little Meerkat is a story of standing together, working together and achieving together.
