The Terrakeet

"Friends are simply strangers we have yet to meet; the endearing beast and a message will encourage readers to learn and engage with new things other than react with dread." -School Library Journal (starred review)

Dr Seuss meets The Gruffalo as imaginative language and charming illustrations combine in a tale of meeting the best kind of new friend - the one you least expect!

In the shade of the gobi trees on the edge of Pincer Sea,
live a family of Finlocks as peaceful as can be.
They lomf and fish and fish and eat and hope that they will never meet ...
the Frimbulitic Terrakeet!

A story of legend and adventure, remarkable bravery and unexpected friendship.
