Everyone was leaving town on the day that Salim was born. Mama folded him into her shawl and started walking amid the dust and color.
Starting out in a new place is tough, but friendship, kindness, and imagination help Salim, Mama, and Donkey discover their new world. In this stunning picture book by award-winning creators Vikki Conley and Martina Heiduczek, we journey with Salim as he grows up, creating a new life around him.
