THE SNOW LEOPARD

by Jackie Morris

This is a dreamy tale of an aged magical protector snow leopard. From the beginning of time Snow Leopard has sung the stars to life, the sun to rise and the moon to wax and wane. She weaves a song that brings the snows to keep her hidden valley safe from the world of men and as she sings, a child down in the valley beneath dreams her song. But time is passing, and Snow Leopard needs to find a singer to replace her--and while she is searching for a successor, soldiers come to the valley looking for gold and slaves...

Set against a stunning Himalayan backdrop, Jackie Morris's lyrical words weave a starlit myth, and her portrayal of the rarely-seen Snow Leopard offers a message of hope at a time when many of the world's wildest places are being worn away.

For ages 4 and up.

"Morris' beautiful [art] further distinguishes this quiet story about grace, humility, and identity."—Kirkus Reviews
