Description

When Willow crosses the boundary to the patch of woodland behind her house, something amazing happens: she enters The Wilderness, where magic and nature collide. It holds more than you could possibly imagine: secrets, shadows, a witch. Even a monster. Here she meets the Wild Things, a group of children who have taken on the characteristics of the wild creatures they are named after. For when you are in The Wilderness, the only limit to the world is your imagination. To her family she is simply Willow. To her new friends and in her new world, she is Willow Wildthing. With beautiful, lyrical storytelling from Gill Lewis, and stunning two-colour illustrations throughout from Rebecca Bagley, this is a joyful celebration of the power of nature and the imagination, encouraging children to explore, be curious, resilient, and adventurous.

Media Reviews

"A terrific new series of slim chapter books for younger ones with lovely clear print and enticing illustrations from Rebecca Bagley, ensuring the easily distracted remain involved." * The Times *
"A gentle adventure story that celebrates going back to basics and children immersing themselves in imaginative play in the 'wild' outdoors. [...] Themes of friendship and looking out for one another thread their way through, and there's a fun twist when it comes to the swamp monster itself." * The BookTrust *
