In a small Scottish market town, the new housing estate has finally reached the edge of an ancient holy grove on Battle hill. As construction begins, more than mere nature is displaced...
Follow the adventures of earthworm Jimmy and his unusual travel companions as he battles the dangers to get home to his mum.
Anna is a ten-year-old with dreams of a fairer world for all, especially insects. Although autistic, like her heroine Greta Thunberg, Anna is far too shy to save the world by shouting. She chooses instead to save the world as an introvert, quietly by herself. But the woods are watching and listening...and 'stoorworm' has gone viral on the Wood-wide-web.
Twisting local Scottish history and folklore into an idiosyncratic mix of fantasy and fact, bringing the faerie world into a modern landscape.
A must read for anyone with a desire to disappear into the woods with the faeries.
A proper children's book for grown-ups.
