A heartwarming, funny, and timely story with a gentle eco message
about protecting and respecting the natural world.
On a small, rocky island live the Walloos. Spotty Walloo loves to cook,
Big Walloo loves to build, Little Walloo loves to grow plants, and Old
Walloo loves to tell stories about his adventures. Little Walloo can't
wait to have her first adventure, too! So when the family travels by
boat to a tropical island, Little Walloo can't believe her eyes. The air
is so moist and fresh, the plants so tall and green. But when the
Walloos begin picking the island's leaves and plants, Little Walloo gets
a funny feeling. Something is not quite right. What is that
gurgle-wurgle-gurgle sound? And is the island . . . moving? From
author-illustrator Anuska Allepuz comes a sweet and humorous tale about
adventure and discovery--and sensitivity to the living things around us.
