hardback    ISBN 13: 9781913747435 | ISBN 10: 1913747433

In a plot of land at the edge of town, Ana grows only perfectly-sized plants and perfect-looking flowers and throws all the irregular shoots and uneven seeds over the wall into the disorderly Wild. But as her garden gets tidier, neater and more constrained, the Wild begins to grow...
 
The Derby Children’s Picture Book Award Longlist 2022
 
Recommended for readers aged 3+

"The Wall and the Wild is a wonderful picture book to help children learn about ecology and biodiversity and how through rewilding we can bring nature back to our gardens"
(Babipur Book Club)

"Absolutely lovely. I love the way it gently demonstrates the importance of diversity in ecosystems (& communities) with wonderful bright illustrations of a flourishing and not-so-flourishing garden. I especially love the incidental inclusion of hearing aids on Ana, our gardener!”
(Caroline Fielding, Librarian)
