The Little Knock-Kneed Alpaca

Description

Little Alpaca grew up with long legs and knock-knees. All the other alpacas laughed at him. Mother said Little Alpaca was wonderful, but how could he show the others what he could do?
When danger arrives on the station in outback Australia, Little Alpaca must find the courage to warn the Alpaca herd and guard the other animals.
A loving story between a mother and her baby illustrated beautifully to showcase a wintry Australian outback.
