Meet Bumple and Little Mop: stars of a wild and wonderful new adventure from award-winning author and artist Helen Kellock.

A story about finding courage through friendship, set on an enchanted Scottish island. In a forgotten part of the sea, there lies the Isle of Begg: its shores are wild and wonderful, with creatures of every kind... But there's one little creature, called Bumple, who has no interest in the island's wonders; she'd much rather stay put in her cosy home patch. It's only when a mischievous little beastie crash lands in her world that Bumple begins to realize – a little bit of wildness can be a LOT of fun!
