Rajah and the Big Blue Ball
Rajah, the big black dog, likes to play in his big back yard.
He chases the leaves. He sniffs the air every day. It is his favorite place.
One day a strange thing happens. Something hits Rajah on the head. It scares him.
A blue ball is up in the sky.
Where did the ball come from? Did it do it on purpose? Did it want to make him afraid?
Rajah has to find the courage to take back his own world.
Written by the author of The Wishing Flower and The Magic of Laven-Rock, Rajah and the Big Blue Ball looks into the face of the unknown.
