Ugo

With lush cut-paper illustrations by Abraham Matias, this modern-day homage to Ferdinand is a gentle celebration of self-compassion, community, and kindness. Ugo's great big donkey heart loves to dance. Ugo has been trained from a young age to memorize the trail to the market, carrying the farmer's grain to sell. He knows it's important to stay on the path. But when the music of the trees calls to him, he just can't resist the urge to drop the grain and... Shake. Spin. Stomp. To tame Ugo's wandering spirit, the farmer trains ShinShin the monkey to be his guide. But when an accident befalls Ugo on this well-worn path, the music of the trees fades away, and he must dig deep inside himself to find his true place in the world.
