Sage’s Ark

Orphaned and unable to speak, Sage lives with her aunt on a small island, caring for the local wildlife. A gift of magical paint brushes opens up an exciting new world for her, helping to save endangered animals. But adventure leads to danger when strangers stumble onto the island.

‘She painted bilbies, bandicoots and night parrots. She painted gorillas, whooping cranes and humpback whales. She painted tiny frogs and small whistling birds. She painted morning, noon and night for weeks on end.’
