The Wooden Fish

Author(s): Wenxuan Cao

Hardback Picture Books

In the middle of a great big river stands a single wooden post. It appears useless because the lone post cannot form a bridge by itself. The wooden post yearns for freedom and friendship. Its days are brightened when a shepherd boy sits by the riverbank, keeping it company. When danger befalls its new friend, will the wooden post be able to help despite being stuck in one spot?
