Otto and Nanu are off on a climbing adventure – to the top of Lion Mountain! But Nanu is having a forgetting day and can’t remember the way home. Can Otto be a brave explorer, just like she taught him, and lead their expedition home?

A range of simple stories for new readers, with beautiful colour illustrations.

Nanu and Otto are off on a climbing adventure – to the top of Lion Mountain! Otto is a born explorer, just like his grandma, who is brave and bold and can’t resist the urge for adventure.

But Nanu is having a forgetting day. She forgets her backpack and the name of the mountain … and then she forgets the way home and leads them deep into the forest.

Can Otto remember all the things Nanu taught him about being a great elephant explorer and guide the expedition home?

A tender story celebrating the importance of keeping memories alive by Corrinne Averiss, the acclaimed author of A DOT IN THE SNOW and THE BOY ON THE BENCH, with illustrations by Kristyna Litten, author and illustrator of CHICKENS CAN’T SEE IN THE DARK.
