As the region of Tutiland succumbs to greater and greater drought, the animals who call it home must unearth their own determination and heart to survive.
Thirst No More follows the harrowing and touching story of Negu and Iyage, tortoises who have contemplated taking their son, Feno, and leaving the desperately barren landscape of Tutiland.
But when a chance encounter with the fearsome, tyrannical king-an elephant named Koli-leaves their family broken and lost, they must gather their strength and fight to overcome the many obstacles before them.
Along with the help of fellow animals of their community, Negu and Iyage learn how to harness hidden resources against a backdrop that seems to offer little.
With messages of compassion and forgiveness, this inspiring story reminds us to find abundance where we might believe there to be scarcity and to find hope where we might feel despair.
Written as a lyrical and heartwarming comment on many of the challenges facing humanity today, Thirst No More encourages us to look at the world in which we live and question what it means to allocate resources despite changing environments.
