From the author of the #1 bestselling Born a Crime comes a gorgeously illustrated fable about a young child’s journey into the world beyond the shadow of home, an enchanted landscape where he discovers the secrets of solidarity, connection, and finding peace with the people we love. ‘What will we find in the uncut grass?’ ‘It depends on what we’re looking for.’ Infused with the author’s signature wit and imagination, in collaboration with masterful artist Sabina Hahn, it’s a tale for readers of all ages – to be read aloud or read alone. Few memories in my life bring me more joy than the first few books I read as a child. Either with my mom or reading alone, those simple stories shaped so much of how I saw the world. I hope this story can bring a little bit of that same joy to readers of all ages.”
