Can Bashi find safety in time?As the sun rises over the African plain, a mother elephant and her newborn calf, Bashi, follow their herd down to the watering hole. But they are not alone, for the water has drawn some lionesses to the edge to drink and they are looking hungrily at Bashi. John Butler's carefully researched, stunning illustrations bring to life this dramatic story of survival in Africa. "Another eye-catching presentation from the creators of Shadow the Deer...This title will attract youngsters wishing to experience the adventures of creatures in the wild".
