One of the Observer's Best Children's Books of 2024
A warm and endearing story about the quiet power of being yourself from Zadie Smith, Nick Laird and Magenta Fox.
Maud - a judo-suit wearing guinea pig and proud weirdo - is off into the wild, as is Kit, her owner. Both are slightly nervous about what they'll find in the great outdoors, but with a pinch of bravery - and a few Signature Moves - they'll make new friends and explore new worlds.
