THE COMPANION BOOK TO THE BAFTA AND OSCAR-WINNING SHORT ANIMATED FILM - Available on BBC and Apple+

The companion book to the BAFTA and Oscar winning animated short film.

A journey, in search of home...

This beautifully made hardback celebrates the work of over 100 animators across two years of production - with Charlie's distinctive illustrations brought to life in full colour with hand-drawn traditional animation and accompanying hand-written script.

"I made a film with some friends about a boy, a mole, a fox and a horse - their journey together and the boy's search for home. I hope this book gives you courage and makes you feel loved." Love Charlie x
