Little Seahorse and the Big Question by Freddy McConnell, Rosalind Beardshaw

Join Papa and Little One on a very ordinary day, as they explore Little One's big question: "What do we need?"
Together, they decide they need lots of things - clean water, friends, a home - but, above all, they need each other.

This is a lyrical, heart-warming picture book for all families, no matter how they are created and no matter who is in them.
 
From multi-media journalist and seahorse dad, Freddy McConnell, and award-winning illustrator Rosalind Beardshaw for this picture book adventure.
