Counting On Africa

Last Day in Victoria Falls!

Spent the morning at the incredible Baines Restaurant overlooking the iconic Zambezi River. What a special place to end an unforgettable family reunion in Zimbabwe.

Thanks to my mother country for having me. I always miss you when I'm gone. It was growing up in this amazing part of Africa that inspired so many of my stories, and there's lots more where they came from!

Until next time, Zimbabwe, I will see you in my stories ❤️

Here's another sweet nature poem to read with your little ones!

"Little Talk"

Don’t you think it’s probable
That beetles, bugs, and bees
Talk about a lot of things—
You know, such things as these:

The kind of weather where they live
In jungles tall with grass
And earthquakes in their villages
Whenever people pass!

Of course, we’ll never know if bugs
Talk very much at all,
Because our ears are far too big
For talk that is so small.

- Aileen Fisher
