Publisher's Summary

A brilliant collection of beautiful stories by exciting artist Lara Hawthorne. Brought to life by the melodic voice of Roisin Rankin.

The collection includes four stories. Alba the Hundred Year Old Fish gently highlights the issue of pollution through the eyes of an old fish trying to teach the world how to bring colour back to the ocean.

In the garden-inspired tale of Herbert's Garden, Herbert realises that each creature in the garden has something special to offer, even a slow, slimy, and greedy slug like him.

The third tale, The Night Flower, takes us on a rhyming journey all the way to the Arizonan desert, where wildlife gathers to witness the special annual event of a night flower blooming.

The final story, Ratty's Big Adventure, seamlessly combines story and fact and celebrates the diversity of life deep in Papua New Guinea. It is a lesson in being thankful for what you have!

This collection of gentle lyrical stories includes music and nature sound effects, creating the perfect listening experience for young listeners before bedtime, or any time of the day!
