The Otter's Son (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235791121)

A cosy animal adventure, a coming-of-age quest, and a love letter to the English riverbank.

When young Portly Otter goes missing again, this time for good, Ratty, Mole, Badger, and an older, wiser Toad must leave the safety of the River Bank behind. What begins as a rescue mission becomes something far larger: a journey through the Wild Wood, across the Wide World, and into the ancient heart of the Piper's dell, where old magic still lingers.

Packed with riverbank adventure, woodland mystery, cosy fantasy, talking animals, English countryside charm, seasonal atmosphere, friendship, courage, home and belonging, folklore, pastoral fantasy, gentle peril, and classic children's literature spirit, this is a story for anyone who ever wished The Wind in the Willows had one more chapter.

Fans of Kenneth Grahame, Beatrix Potter, Brian Jacques' Redwall, The Hobbit's pastoral chapters, Winnie-the-Pooh, and classic British animal fantasy will feel right at home among the reeds, the hedgerows, and the flickering lantern-light of Toad Hall.
