Once there was a small rhinoceros who dreamed of what it would be like to go and explore the world. The other rhinos didn't seem to understand and tried their best to convince her to stay where it was safe, and where she could do all the things rhinos are expected to do. So strong was her desire for adventure, the small rhinoceros simply had to follow her heart. From award-winning creators Meg McKinlay and Leila Rudge comes this book about having a dream, being brave and staying true to who you really are.
