“Lead for you or gold for me, speak now, sharpish – what’ll it be?”

​

Co – written by Xanthe & Robin & illustrated by Sherry Robinson, this book of folktales, intended for children aged 7-11, has also gained a following amongst grown-ups. Who wouldn’t want to bump into Puck as they walk the downs near Lewes, or spy a centaur in the woods at Rye? Watch out for the phantom highwayman at Steyning, though.

Available both on Amazon and WHSmith's.

Hare is faster than any other creature, but he’s growing older: hunted across the forest he shelters with the Wise Woman in her hut. She heals his wounds, bringing the rage of the foresters upon herself - until their leader desperately needs her.

 

Hare is a fable about what it means to be hunted, judged and marginalized and nevertheless to make the ultimate sacrifice for your persecutors.  9300 words. Seeking publication.
