Gertjie and Matimba are baby white rhinos. They live at an animal home in South Africa. They don’t have mothers, so workers at the home are helping them. Gertjie and Matimba also have a friend, a sheep called Lammie. Sheep and rhinos aren’t usually friends . But Gertjie, Matimba, and Lammie play together. It’s fun to watch!

Lammie is small and fast. The rhinos are bigger than Lammie, and they’re slower, too. Lammie is older than Gertjie and Matimba, so she takes care of them. At bath time, Lammie sits next to the water. At bedtime, she sleeps outside their room. They don’t have a mom, but Gertjie and Matimba are happy they have Lammie!
