Picture Book
Left to Nowhere
A picture book about what we have, what we lose, and what we might still save.
About the book
In an unfamiliar, post-industrial land, the inhabitants get carried away with their celebrations — and destroy something essential to their world. Only when the last one is gone do they understand what they've lost.
A universal tale about appreciating and preserving what we have, and a springboard for conversations with children about care and conservation.
Inside the book
Praise
"This sophisticated picture book is without doubt an award winner in the making... The best picture book I have seen in a long while. A message for everybody who is human."
"What a beautiful book! The illustrations are quite sublime... There is so much discussion to be had from the pictures."
"A satisfying mix of humour, fantasy and challenging choices... draws upon notions that matter for humanity: community, conservation, collective care and knowledge."
