"A heartening and pensive story, told through irresistibly charming art, Star the Elephant is an utter delight." --John Patrick Green, New York Times-bestselling creator of InvestiGators, on Star the Elephant

Rainbow the Koala is ready to go off and live on his own--or so his mom says. But Rainbow is scared! The kookaburra bird cackles at him and he struggles to find a tree to call his home. As scorching heat takes hold and Rainbow runs out of water, he'll soon face his most dangerous test: surviving a bush fire.
