Description
In this new series, based on real-life animal tales, discover that not all heroes wear capes – some have four legs, a wet nose, and a brave heart. Big or small, fall in love with animal friends who have lived truly wild lives.
Read about Talala, the curious leopard cub, who lived with lions. When Talala found herself the sole survivor of her pack in Gir National Park, she began a quest to find a new family. Talala tried the owl family, but she didn't understand their language. Then the antelope family, who ate blossoms – yuck. And then the alligator hatchlings, who didn't play the same games as Talala at all. Finally, she spied the lion family... Would Talala be the heart of their pride? Would she find her fit? This heartwarming story has a fact section at the back, so you can learn more about big cats and how you can help them. Adorable illustrations from Alexandra Finkeldey will make you want to hug the page. Also in the series is Onyx, based on the reintroduction of wolves of Yellowstone Park. Fluffles, the koala who held strong through a bushfire. And Sterling, the moose who showed that love has no borders.

"True Stories of Animal Heroes: Talala" tell the story of the young leopard cub Talala, who lost her family and starts searching for a new one. It is the story of being different/not understanding the language and wanting/trying to fit in.
I have to say the Art is so amazing and adorable. Makes me want to cuddle Talala. A cute touch were the actual photographs of the cubs at the end of the book.
My daughter and I adored this book; it was so cute and heartwarming. The story is based on a real life story about a leopard cub called Talala who, after losing her own family, searched and searched through different animal families until she found the one who was perfect for her and who accepted her. This is a lovely book which children will love, and it has beautiful illustrations and photographs in it.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and Net Galley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
