Publisher's Summary

The breath-taking children's debut from acclaimed nature writer and Costa Award-shortlisted novelist, Melissa Harrison - a tale of the rich, wild world and all its wonder.

Three tiny, ancient beings - Moss, Burnet and Cumulus, once revered as Guardians of the Wild World - wake from winter hibernation in their beloved ash tree home. When it is destroyed, they set off on an adventure to find more of their kind, a journey that takes them first into the deep countryside and then the heart of a city. Helped along the way by birds and animals, the trio search for a way to survive and thrive in a precious yet disappearing world....

peaceful listen

While I recognize that as an adult, I was not the target audience; this adorable story features many truths about growing up and living in the world and among all the creatures in it.
Occasionally, the background nature noises overshadowed the narrator, and sometimes the narrator wasn't as clear with new voices, but it is warm and calming and British.
