Wally: The Wandering Walrus

Julia Slingo and Graeme Stephens

This charming story is about Wally the Walrus, who found himself far from home and with nowhere to rest. We meet the friends he makes and learn how the local people finally made him welcome.

Through Wally's adventures, we learn how important it is that we respect the needs of all creatures with whom we share our planet. As our environment and climate changes, they will depend more and more on our help to survive.

With beautiful hand-drawn watercolour illustrations, this is a book for all those who love the Isles of Scilly and its wildlife.
