Description
One growing elephant. One smallish lifeboat. One BIG dream . . .
From the award-winning author-illustrator Ed Vere comes a lyrical tale celebrating bravery and quiet determination.
In a village by the sea, carved into the rockiest edge of land, where the waves are wild and tumbling lives an old elephant. Once he was a young elephant - with a dream of joining the lifeboat crew. But elephants don’t fit in lifeboats.
Gabriel is determined, and he is ingenious, and he is brave. So much so that one stormy day he might be the only one who can save the day.
