Don't Go Near the Crocodile Ponds

When separated from the safety of their respective herds (despite constant warnings from their mothers to stay close), young wildebeest, Jaffer, and zebra friend, Akeem, set out across the vast African savanna to find them. But can they make their way home without falling prey to the many dangers lurking in the wilds of the harsh and endless grassland?

A cautionary tale, this fun and action-filled children's picture book with its bright, beautifully rendered illustrations will take you and your kids on a bedtime adventure of a lifetime as you navigate Africa's perilous grassy plain.
