A DESERT STORY
Norwegian title: En ørkenhistorie
Pedro and Victor are brothers. They live in the desert. One day they find a paper aeroplane. It is an invitation to a sandcastle competition! If there’s one thing Pedro and Victor have a lot of, it’s sand, so together with Mingo the flamingo and Pep the desert fox they start getting ready. They’re going to win this competition!
A charming and unique picture book about seeing New opportunities in everyday situations, wherever you are.
‘A charming book about collaboration and usefulness. [...] Thue’s collaboration with Moseng has resulted in a charming children’s book about collaboration and usefulness. It also tells us that there are often alternative uses for things that seem useless if we are willing to think outside the box.’BARNEBOKKRITIKK.NO
