Gregory’s Adventure, by Llandeilo-based Polish author Ewa Jacob-Kadewska promises to delight young readers with its engaging characters and scenic forest descriptions.
The story follows a young hare named Gregory who embarks on a quest to help a lost baby bird find his family. After a tiny yellow chick called Titch lands on Gregory’s head, the two encounter owls, woodpeckers, finches and more as Gregory tries to identify what type of bird Titch is.
When attempts at swimming reveal Titch is no duck or goose, Gregory gets advice from a wise old swan who suggests looking for kingfishers. Just as Gregory is losing hope of solving the mystery, he spots Titch happily united with a flock of yellow wagtails.
Gregory’s Adventure (Paperback ISBN: 9781035843824, eBook ISBN: 9781035843831) promotes themes of friendship, determination and discovering one’s identity.
