AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sometimes, wondering is the only way to see the wonder that's all around. And so buckle up, reader, for a story with all its glorious strange bits still attached on an epic adventure of What on Earths.

'One elephant, one kakapo, one unlicensed teenage driver, one boy waiting for the world to end and one twelve-year-old girl with a very special gift.

'Sal has always had an affinity with animals - especially the lost kind. And so when a kakapo appears at her window, she befriends it. And when an elephant walks into town, Sal feels compelled to help it... but how?

'This wonder-filled adventure celebrates the unusual and the misfits in a poignant and timely story about family and friendship, finding your voice and our connection with the world...' (Publication summary)
