A little girl's encounter with a baby rhino inspires the greening of her city neighbourhood.

Little Rhino is lost in the big, crowded city and he's afraid his mummy will never find him, far from home, with no tall trees, yummy leaves or green grass anywhere. Maya wants to help but what can she do to make her home a place that Little Rhino's mummy will come to? Can Maya and everyone around her turn their homes and their city into a welcoming green space, with flowers, plants and trees - somewhere a little rhinoceros could call home? This enchanting story shows how kindness, determination and community spirit can come together to bring about real change and make our cities greener.
