"A beautifully illustrated and powerful picture book, with a rallying call to protect our world."
This modern fable is an absolutely beautiful ode to nature. Through lyrical text and breathtaking illustrations, Yuval Zommer tells the story of The Wild, of a wild environment that sustained birds and animals, where plants and trees flourished and life was abundant, Double page painterly spreads show glimpses of different environments in absorbing detail, illustrating the importance of a healthy world to support life, including human life.
As time went by the people forgot their link to the land, and started to take more and more from it until the earth became sick. The colour palette moves from vibrant greens to dull, grey colours as the wild begins to die. But there is hope! A young voice rings out, and the single voice becomes a chorus as the people call for change.
Dedicated to the wild in all of us, this is a powerful picture book and a rallying call to protect our world.
Once upon a time, somewhere not far away, was the Wild. The Wild was huge and giving, and everything from insects, to birds, to humans made their home in it. At first, people lived lightly and took what they needed, but when they started to take more, the Wild suffered.
