Scotty is a little Scotty dog who was blown onto the Isle of Mull, deep in the
heart of a storm. But when a fisherman gives him an old collar with ancient
writing on it, Scotty is whirled off on a series of extraordinary journeys with
his best friend Owl. Crotchety old Owl loves trees - his home being one - and
the collar whisks them away to India to see the Banyan, to Brazil to see the
last tree left standing, and to East Africa, where new seedlings are sprouting
gently into fresh forests.
Climate change can sometimes be a little frightening, and Scotty’s story is a
tale about the small changes we can all make to protect the planet. Will
Scotty and Owl get home safely from their journeys around the world? Will
Owl manage not to lose all his feathers flapping after the little Scotty, with his
nose for adventure? Will they both learn something extraordinary about
trees, home, and how to protect it by planting just one seed? Hold tight…
Multi-million selling author Conn Iggulden teams up again with fantastic
illustrator Lizzy Duncan on this environmental adventure.
The story of Scotty was initially produced by the Scotia Group for
distribution to all delegates in attendance at the UN’s COP26 climate summit
in Glasgow. Conn and Lizzy are thrilled to be working with Little Door Books to
expand Scotty into a series that continues to tell the story about how nobody
is too small to make a difference, and no difference is too small to make when
it comes to saving our planet.
Excellent for schools and families wanting to find out more about our world
and how to help protect it.
