The Secret Wild

I think kids are going to go wild about this book! It’s a real page-turner with oodles of heart – pacy, intriguing and full of fun. I look forward very much to watching this book spread its tendrils far and wide! * Sophie Kirtley, author of The Wild Way Home *Such a joy! Told with warmth and wit, this is a real page-turner – and a hymn to our precious planet. * Abi Elphinstone *I absolutely adored The Secret Wild. A really original debut. Brilliant characterisation, thoughtful storytelling and a truly engaging and entertaining plot. Friendship, family and the environment are at the heart of this story, I absolutely loved it. – Jo ClarkeOh my, what a stunning book! I’m utterly in love with Fern, the pluckiest, most brilliant main character ever, and found myself totally lost in her botanical adventure. I’d recommend it to everyone, whatever your age! – Lucy Hope * author of Fledgling *A charming and fun adventure, full of bravery and a wonderful botanical and spooky mystery for young readers. For those who need modern triffids, look not further. – Chris Packham * BBC *
