Finding Wild

When her cherished Ma Millie falls ill, a timid housecat ventures into the wild to seek help in this adventure about love, loss, and finding the truest version of ourselves. A warm, cozy lap. The toasty smell of baking bread. Tasty food served in a bright-blue bowl. These make Haven's life as an indoor pet heaven. All thanks to her beloved human and rescuer, Ma Millie. But when Ma Millie becomes too sick to care for her, the cat's cozy life is turned upside down, and Haven decides she must seek out another human for help. Anything for Ma Millie! Her vow pulls her out of her safe nest into the shadowy forest and down unfamiliar and dangerous roads. When her first plan fails, Haven meets a wilderness-savvy fox who volunteers as an ally, and their perilous journey together brings some victories. But Haven finds herself pitted against creatures far wilder than she ever could be, testing her strength and spirit to their limits. Will her loyalty to Ma Millie--and her newfound confidence in herself--be enough to help Haven see the quest through to its conclusion? Can she stand up against the fierce predator that is tracking her every move?

A Small Cat’s Big Adventure

Haven

La naturaleza está mucho más cerca de ti de lo que piensas, sólo tienes que saber dónde mirar. ¿Serás capaz de encontrarla? A apenas unos pasos de una boca de metro, una simple hoja captará la atención de unos niños, conduciéndoles a una maravillosa aventura que les alejará de su ciudad para sumergirles en toda la belleza del mundo salvaje. Así descubrirán que la naturaleza está repleta de buenos olores, como el de la menta fresca o el de una recóndita cueva antigua, que lo salvaje puede sentirse en el calor del bosque o en un frío carámbano, que puede ser dulce como las moras o la miel de las abejas y que hace ruido como los truenos o los susurros del viento. Las coloridas y sugerentes ilustraciones de este libro nos avisan de que la vida salvaje no se puede contener, sólo permanece oculta, esperando a que la descubras.

Building Books

A lovely, lyrical picture book with gorgeous illustrations that explores the ways the wild makes itself known to us and how much closer it is than we think. There are so many places that wild can exist, if only you know where to look! Can you find it? Two kids set off on an adventure away from their urban home and discover all the beauty of the natural world. From the bark on the trees to the sudden storm that moves across the sky to fire and flowers, and snowflakes and fresh fruit. As the children make their way through the woods and back to the paved and noisy streets, they discover that wild exists not just off in some distant place, but right in their own backyard. *"Sometimes the most striking picture books are the ones that make readers see something in a new way, or that creatively express a concept regularly pondered but rarely put into words."--Shelf Awareness, starred review "Lloyd’s sparkling debut celebrates nature through a whimsical meditation on the idea of wildness. Halpin’s lush and delicately detailed mixed-media pictures...dominated by muted greens and blues pull readers into the diverse landscapes the children traverse. A spirit of adventure and exploration runs throughout the book." --Publishers Weekly
