Description

Age range 4 to 8

It's not the journey that changes his life, but those he meets along the way.

Albie on His Way tells the story of Albie, who is on a mission. The king has commanded him to deliver an important message to the neighbouring castle. Dutifully, he dashes away. But once on his way, something comes up... and then another thing, and then another! What is one to do when a squirrel, a tired mother and her many children, and an old animal need Albie's help just as much as his king?

Told with clever parallel storytelling, Hans Christian Andersen Award winner Jutta Bauer relays a charming tale about the importance of kindness and being true to oneself—even when you are on an important errand for the king.
