Children will be thrilled by tales of a reindeer separated from its herd in snowy Scandinavian woods and marvel at a chameleon changing colour in Madagascar's forests. Other stories feature elephants, wild cats, pangolins, monarch butterflies, walking fish, ancient trees, and even forest-dwelling penguins, all brought to life through Kristen Adam's beautiful illustrations.
