Into the Wild

Author and illustrator: Thomas Docherty

Joe adores the wild. Sadly, there’s no chance of spotting nature in his built-up neighbourhood. But one night, everything changes… A concrete jungle springs to life in this gently amusing urban adventure promoting a valuable message about re-connecting with wildlife. With highly imaginative, detailed illustrations it’s a joy to pore over, especially for budding naturalists!
