The award-winning allegorical fantasy about a boy who is half ox, half-human-now in paperback for the first time. An ALA Notable Book; a Notable Children's Trade Book in the Field of Social Studies. "No one can tell that I am the son of an ox. Like my father, I am hardworking, and I have a stubborn, tenacious nature. But so do many pure humans..."

But now he is an outcast and must hide his true identity-or die. Anne Mazer's stunning allegorical fantasy examines our relationship with nature-and our feelings about our own natures-as it reveals and challenges our deepest prejudices.
