Children’s Picture Book
Hari is always trying to avoid trouble, but one day, trouble comes to find her. To her surprise, the very things she’s done to stay safe become her superpowers.
A story for the curious, gentle risk-takers, those who suspect there is more to adventure than climbing up and jumping off.
Written by the award-winning author Danny Parker and illustrated by UK illustrator Rache Antonio this children’s picture book includes original music composed by the award-winning artist, Matt Ottley, with text narrated by the author.
It is also proudly part of the live performance initiative, The Sound of Picture Books.
