What is Sleepy Cheetah about?

Long ago, Cheetah was sandy-coloured and spent her days snoozing on the Great African Plain. She never needed to chase her food, because other animals often stumbled into her path. Then a fierce fire sweeps across the grasslands, sending every creature running for safety. Can sleepy Cheetah escape the flames? As she races across the plain, she discovers an amazing gift: the speed to run as fast as the wind, and the spots that make her special.
