KS2
A powerful picture book for KS2. A tale of three parts. The first one of pastoral peace with the varmints happily at one with their world. The second seems a haunting transformation in which a new breed of varmints arrives bringing with them cities of a stifling of the imagination. The final part brings hope and a chance that the previous life may still be obtainable: it is a warning for our time and chimes with many themes which are important in the world today in which man’s self-destructive force is something that we need to control and contain before it consumes us all.
