Some children are just a little shy. And that's a good thing, because being quiet can also be very strong!

In this heartwarming story, the little water pig Orson learns this lesson. He moves with his family to live by a river, where vibrant life thrives. Orson's siblings quickly make friends, but Orson holds back and prefers to observe. Until one day, he must prove great courage: crocodile Piri needs help. Despite his shyness, Orson finds a way to ask the other animals for assistance. He manages to do this without being loud at all. He is actively supported by three little friends. Children aged 3 and up will learn from this story that shyness doesn't have to be a weakness. Even quiet personalities can be brave and find good friends - just like the little water pig.
