Nina journeys to a secret jungle city populated by animals, plants, and lost objects. The reason for her visit: Story hour, where a book's power holds the wild in thrall. The animals are eager for stories about space, the sea, and other worlds. But their favourite story of all is this one-a story about a mysterious place, laden with legend and lore, and now overtaken by nature. Five Pantone colours infuse each illustrated spread of this picture book with a vibrant, electric energy, bringing this powerful celebration of nature-and stories-to life.
Complex, stunning. be ready for conversation. -Kirkus Reviews
This rich fantasy leaves many questions unanswered, but the bright artwork and intriguing premise will enchant the right reader. --Booklist
