A lyrical African fable about a young umbrella thorn acacia who discovers hidden water deep underground. When drought threatens everyone in the clearing, including the thorn bushes that ridiculed her, she faces the hardest choice of her young life. This calm, meditative bedtime story explores courage, belonging, and the quiet truth that no one survives alone. Perfect for readers ready to think about identity, generosity, and what it costs to be kind.
Where Water Waits
