This richly atmospheric adventure is packed full of lyrical adventure as a little girl does everything she can to save a snow leopard who has been abandoned in the wonderful Wildoak Forest.
Sent to live with her grandfather Fred deep in the Cornish countryside when school after school fails to help her with her stammer, Maggie finds Rumpus when she explores the forest behind the house.
She loves animals of all kinds and is immediately drawn to this striking and impressive creature. But Rumpus is in danger first from a vicious trap and then, even more alarmingly, from the local farmers who fear his wild nature and are keen to kill him. Can Maggie overcome her communication difficulties to save the noble Rumpus’s life?
