Als ihre Freundinnen ihr das nicht glauben wollen, muss Olga es ihnen beweisen und in den tiefen, dunklen Wald hineingehen. Doch der Wald ist nachts ganz schön gruselig, und plötzlich kann sie auch die anderen Kühe nicht mehr finden. Sie fürchtet sich vor Bären und all den seltsamen Geräuschen. Als sie in der Dunkelheit dann auch noch etwas kitzelt, läuft sie panisch los und landet vor den Füßen ihrer Freundinnen in einem Teich. Jetzt fühlt sie sich gar nicht mehr mutig, doch die anderen feiern sie als Heldin. Und so kommt es, dass Olga trotz ihrer Angst zur Waldführerin wird. Dieses lustig gereimte Bilderbuch zeigt Kindern, dass man die eigene Angst überwinden kann.
