Description
Lalee's world has no books, no teachers, no schools. But there are stories. The stories hush the rumbles that echo across the sand. The stories spark and shimmer, filling Lalee with possibility. And one story - hers - begins to unfold. A lyrical, heart-filled tribute to imagination, hope and the magic of books by multi-award-winning creators Vikki Conley and Jennifer Falkner
