A mother vulture teaches her young vulture a lesson about the beauty of life.
A mother vulture teaches her young vulture a lesson about the beauty of life.

Mother Vulture takes Little Vulture on his first flight.

On their journey, they see a dying gemsbok. Mother Vulture shows her son that the end of one animal’s life is also the beginning of a new cycle for other creatures. 

This story about life, death and grief is brought to you by Book Dash, a local organisation that gathers creative volunteers to create new African storybooks that anyone can freely read, print, translate and distribute. 

Created at Book Dash by Alex Latimer (writer), Diane Awerbuck (editor), Gordon Latimer (designer) and Patrick Latimer (illustrator).
