Another exquisite, clothbound tale from Coralie Bickford-Smith… [her] illustrations are so vivid and patterned, reminiscent of traditional African wax prints, that each page feels alive. The night-time stars and fireflies sparkle, though there's no glitter or foil used, while elsewhere the text swoops bird-like across the page

Other text

Depicts nature at its most majestic and tells a lovely fable about belonging
