Summary: "A new adventure begins for Elliot and Uchenna when Professor Fauna bursts into their classroom with a frightening report from the Texas-Mexico border: something has completely drained the blood from a cow's body!

And what is that spiny, bloodsucking, adorable little creature?"--Page [4] of cover.
