What is There is a Tribe of Kids about?
A young boy sets off on a journey through jungles, oceans and skies, meeting remarkable groups of animals along the way. He waddles with penguins, wriggles with caterpillars, marches with elephants and swings with monkeys. Each encounter introduces a playful collective name and a new adventure, but the boy is still searching for somewhere he belongs. At last, after following a trail of shells, he discovers his own lively tribe of children and finds a welcoming place to call home.
