I'm Joining the Herd explores over fifty different animal groups that live and work together.  It follows a zebra character as she learns about various animal societies.  It features fun facts about packs, flocks, prides, fish, insects, and more with a focus on cooperation and community. 

Gwinn engages kids with a silly Zebra character that interacts with the animal groups.  The book reads like a graphic novel with animals speaking.  Ming's illustrations are detailed, expressive and fun.
