THE LAST ZOOKEEPER by Aaron Becker
HARDCOVER
Author & Illustrator: Aaron Becker
When the world is underwater, compassion becomes the truest form of survival. From Aaron Becker, the award–winning creator of Journey, Quest, and Return, comes THE LAST ZOOKEEPER - a wordless parable for our changing planet.
The Earth has flooded, and the only remnants of humankind are the structures left behind. Amid the ruins of a forgotten zoo, a gentle construction robot named NOA discovers purpose in caring for the last surviving animals. When another storm looms, NOA builds an ark from the wreckage to carry his fragile companions to safety - embarking on a voyage that leads not only to new land, but to an unexpected and deeply human discovery.
Through sweeping cinematic vistas and exquisite visual storytelling, Becker crafts a futuristic reimagining of Noah’s Ark that speaks to the heart of our times: a story of empathy, endurance, and the quiet power of hope. The Last Zookeeper reaffirms Becker’s mastery of the wordless form and invites readers to dream, reflect, and care - for each other, and for the world we share.
