There are some days when Minnow wakes up and she feels wild. She roars as she
dances and shrieks as she prances – she’s a wonderful, tremendous party of wild! But
sometimes people aren’t fond of this wild Minnow ...
So Minnow tries something different and sees that being wild can be more than just
being loud, fierce and proud. It's also wild to be gentle, thoughtful, funny and sweet –
and the wildest thing of all is being true to who you are.
Bursting with energy and color, Wild Child is the perfect read-aloud for kids who love
animals and letting their imagination run wild!

"Long ago, when giants lived in Scotland and Ireland, they stood so
tall they could see clearly across the wide water between the two
lands." One day, Irish giant Finn McCool spots Scottish giant
Benandonner across the sea and they immediately begin arguing about
who is the best giant of all. Despite the wise advice of Finn's
wife Oona, they decide the only way to settle their feud is to
fight. But to meet, the daft and boastful giants must first build a
causeway across the water... Inspired by Celtic folklore,
best-selling Scottish children's author and storyteller Lari Don
weaves a tall tale of rivalry and foolishness that recounts the
origins of Northern Ireland's world-famous Giant's Causeway and its
connection to Scotland's Isle of Staffa. Emilie Gill's
light-hearted, characterful illustrations of the legendary giants
will captivate young children.
