Animal Water Wars

by Minako Kajiri

Author-illustrator Minako Kajiri applies her characteristic charming and nostalgic style to this tale of quarrelling animal villages. Turtle Village, Sweetfish Village, and Frog Village all have direct access to the local village, whereas Crab Village and Weasel Village don’t. So the crabs and the weasels conspire to re-reroute the water, while newly established villages need water too. Quarrels follow, so how can the animals work together to ensure all the villages receive their fair share of a communal resource?
