Description:

Scqealichtitz! In one startling snip, a little lizard loses his tail and is left wondering what to do. Worried and woebegone, he sets off on a hopeful hunt for a brand-new tail, asking one animal after another if he might borrow theirs. But the squirrel, the cow, and the cat each explain they need their own tails; a trio of dogs simply laugh; and a wise elephant gently points out how very silly the little lizard would look wearing someone else's tail. By the time he trudges home to his mother, a delightful surprise awaits — one that reveals a charming lizard home-truth about growing back what's been lost. Brought to life by German illustrator Christine Kastl's richly textured palette-knife paintings, this warm Karadi Tales picture book from India gently introduces the wonder of regeneration to little readers.
