Wood Magic

Bevis lives on a farm near a small lake where he often escapes into the garden and fields where he comes in contact with the country’s birds and animals. These creatures and even the stream and wind can speak to him.

Part a description of a child’s interaction with the natural world, part animal fable as the creatures revolt against the local tyrant magpie, Wood Magic’s descriptions of nature, wildlife, and domestic animals are beautifully and keenly observed.
