Publishers Weekly praised the hardcover edition of this book: “The duo’s intergenerational affection is portrayed as effortless, effusive, and unconditional. A wonderful celebration of reunions.” And in a starred review, School Library Journal called it “a pure, cadenced classic, where the clues to good times past and present add up to a generous look at the special bonds of an extended family.”
The Baobab Tree (Little Board Books)
Long, long ago, the gods made the very first tree... and it could talk! Was it happy, you ask? It was not. The Baobab Tree whinged and moaned, it grumbled and groaned, all day long. But gods have a unique way of dealing with trees who complain too much. A delightful retelling of a traditional story, with free online audio.
