The world is breaking up!" The worry-wart hare quickly spreads the word in this lively retelling of an ancient Indian version of The Sky is Falling. Convinced that the world is breaking up, the hare tears out of her cozy home in the grove. Along the way, she spreads her alarming news, gathering an ever-increasing herd of terrified animals. The stampede continues and the frenzy grows, until one wise voice prevails. With rich colour and vivid detail, Jan Thornhill's illustrations create an intricate tapestry that brings the Indian landscape and endangered animals to life. The charging animals seem to leap off the page as they as they bolt from marshland to forest to open plain. Young readers and parents alike will be entranced by the brilliant illustrations, simple language, and engaging moral.
