HERD

"My little one," she whispered. "I am always here when you need to reach out." This is a story about a little elephant and his herd. It''s a story about moving from place to place each day - and wondering what ''home'' means when you move around from forest to grassland to stream. Can this little elephant find his home in the world? Because home is not a place - it''s his herd, and the ones who love him best. Filled with beautiful, luminous artwork, this gorgeous picture book tells a universal story about love, family and belonging that will resonate with readers across the generations.

About the author
