Across the vast, golden plains of Africa, a little elephant named Tembo is learning that family is the most important thing of all. Tembo is full of energy and sometimes forgets the rules of the herd, but his Bibi—his grandmother—is always there to guide him. You will follow Tembo as he learns the ancient paths to water and how to stay safe from the dangers of the savanna. Bibi has a long memory and a big heart, and she knows exactly how to keep her family together. Even when Tembo gets a little too adventurous, he knows that Bibi's wisdom will lead him back home. This touching story celebrates the special bond between grandparents and children. Through stunning illustrations of the African wilderness, you will experience the life of an elephant herd and the deep love that connects them. It is a gentle reminder that those who have walked the path before us always remember the way, and they are always there to help us find our own.

Counting sheep is supposed to be the fastest way to fall asleep, but Ava takes so incredibly long to drift off that her sheep are absolutely exhausted! When the tired flock finally decides to quit their job, you will laugh at the hilarious chaos that follows. The sheep promise to find a fluffy replacement, but soon Ava has chickens, cows, pigs, and even heavy hippos trying to gracefully jump over her fence. Finding a quiet, peaceful animal to help her sleep proves to be a very noisy challenge. This funny bedtime tale twists a familiar routine into a wild, wonderful adventure that will leave you smiling under the covers.
