Bookroo's summary
Manyoni embarks on a two-hour trek across the African plain to reach school, her path teeming with wildlife. As she navigates past baobab trees and riverbeds, each step reveals a new creature. Can you spot them all? Her journey is a vivid tapestry of nature's beauty, captured in stunning watercolors. Will she make it to school on time, or will the wild hold unexpected surprises?
From the publisher
“Manyoni is on her way to school; she gets up at dawn to walk two hours across the plain, along the Limpopo riverbed….As seen in Stock’s beautifully rendered impressionistic watercolors…wild animals and birds are on almost every spread–more than 30 in all….A lovely book that draws the reader right in.”–Kirkus Reviews.
