Yates the Yak’s Spicy Dream

Yates the Yak has spent twenty years hauling salt deep in the Himalayan mountains, but his heart longs for something else. While the other yaks lick the salty cave walls with delight, Yates secretly dreams of black pepper, warm spices, and fragrant factories far beyond the snowy cliffs.
Told with humor, heart, and Himalayan charm, Yates the Yak’s Spicy Dream follows one determined yak as he leaves behind the expected to chase his passion. With grit, grace, and a pepper pouch around his neck, Yates journeys through wind, snow, and doubt to prove that it’s never too late to start something new.
Perfect for kids ages 3–6, this inspiring tale reminds readers that the things that make us different often lead us to where we truly belong.
