DayZee Discovers her Purple Superpower

By Ellen Rony

Meet DayZee A unique new zebra has arrived. A special zebra is born in the heart of Malawi. At the back of her neck, where she cannot see it, is a colorful purple stripe. In the vast African savannah, she faces a rough introduction to the animal kingdom and the lonely longing to fit in. DayZee is different from the rest of her herd, so she is socially isolated by the other young zebras. When fierce lions and a cranky crocodile frighten her, the menacing animals suddenly turn and run away.

DayZee soon learns about the natural superpowers all zebras possess and the extraordinary one that makes her stand out. Will the other zebras come to trust what makes her unusual and welcome her into the herd?

Malawi's sweeping grasslands, vibrant skies and scenic Lilongwe River shoreline provide a radiant backdrop to this wildlife adventure for children ages 3 to 8. The timeless tale offers an abiding leitmotif with its picturesque sense of place and metaphor of self-discovery, courage and the triumph of acceptance. Authored by Ellen Rony and masterfully illustrated by Victoria Fong, every picture book sold supports the mission and vital efforts of the World Wildlife Fund to protect and restore endangered species.
