"A house is not a home for wild things; wild things need to run,
and soar, and swim." In the quiet dawn of the spring forest a boy
finds an orphan fawn, hungry and alone. He carefully carries her
home, caring for her while she grows strong. The boy and the fawn
become inseparable. Together they spend long summer days running
through the glen, leaping over the heather, and lying in the
dappled sunlight. But the young deer is a wild thing and too soon
she is ready to discover a home of her own. The boy misses his
friend and worries for her when a big storm threatens. Can the boy
and the fawn find each other again? Are some bonds stronger than
goodbye? Lyrical and atmospheric, this beautiful picture book by
award-winning author Louise Greig and emerging illustrator Júlia
Moscardó is an uplifting story of belonging, the enduring
connection between humans and nature, and a tender lesson in
learning when to let go of those you love.
