An enchanting new adventure. An unforgettable land. And the perfect read for young fans of Kate DiCamillo and Karen Foxlee, by beloved Australian author Rhiannon Williams.
Dusty has grown up hearing whispers about her mysterious aunt Meg, who went off to live βout wildβ and never returned. Yet Dustyβs father refuses to discuss what happened β and her only clue is a photograph of her aunt as a young girl with a strange, monkey-like creature on her shoulder.Β
But when Dusty learns that her familyβs beloved bushland property might be sold, sheβs convinced that only Meg could stop it happening. So Dusty sets off to find her β¦ and thatβs when she discovers what βout wildβ really means.
The Outwilds are beguiling. Dangerous. And full of creatures Dusty half-remembers from old bedtime stories β beautiful, but deadly. Is Meg still out there? And even if she is, how will Dusty bring her home?
Bursting with fantastical creatures and starring a bold young girl determined to uncover the truth, this thrilling fantasy-adventure is destined to be a modern classic. Written by Rhiannon Williams, author of the beloved NarrowayΒ trilogy, this stand-alone hardback features stunning illustrations by Martina Heiduczek and is the perfect gift for readers aged 9+ .
