This kind and generous story of friendship offers little children a tiny peek at the window to the world of the differently-abled.
Vole is in a hurry to catch the sunrise. He stops by Mole’s house and invites him too. Soon, they are joined by Rabbit, Squirrel and Sparrow.
Each of them sees the sunrise with a unique perspective, all of which blend together to create a beautiful image for the nearly blind Mole.
This book is about kindness, friendship, generosity and so much more. The illustrations are breathtakingly detailed.
