The Ant Who Walked to The Edge of The World


‘The Ant Who Walked to The Edge of The World’ (2025) was written by Shehan Karunatilaka and is my second officially soon-to-be published picture book. It will be published by Papaya Books in early 2025. The story follows a detective duo of a cockroach and a praying mantis on the search for a missing ant.
