Book
Evie and rhino / written by Neridah McMullin ; illustrated by Astred Hicks.
On a stormy night off the coast of southern Australia in 1891, a ship transporting a cargo of exotic animals tosses and turns in enormous seas, and a young rhino cries out in fear. A few miles inland, ten-year-old Evie and her grandfather shelter in their crumbling, once-grand old home. After the devastating storm that killed Evie's parents and the resulting grief that left Evie mute, they know too well how deadly storms can be. When all is calm, Evie treks down to the water and makes an extraordinary discovery―a discovery that will change her life, and Rhino's, forever.
