About the Book
Through courage and determination, little girl Mink helps save a menagerie of animals who have been captured by the evil Mr. Split.Book Synopsis
In the vein of Islandborn and If Dominican Were a Color comes a picture book by bestselling author Katherine Rundell about a zebra trying to get back home to his family and the little girl who helps him. Mink doesn't believe in rules. She loves letting her hair down and getting the most out of life. So when a loose zebra appears in the square where she lives--and she finds out that his parents have been captured by the evil Mr. Spit--she'll do what it takes to make sure the zebra family can run as wild and free as she does. In this tale of bravery, friendship, and the importance of taking action, Mink uses all her courage and determination to rescue a whole menagerie of animals.About the Author
