Come on an adventure to the edge of the world!

This is a true story about a real place. A place hidden behind the waves. The Vikings saw it in their dreams, and sometimes sea birds call its name. It's a dot on a map. The blink of an eye. The beat of a wing. Storms and songs and stickleback stop by on their travels.

This is St Kilda. A tiny group of islands; an archipelago: Hirta, Boreray, Soay, Dn. They call them The Islands at the End of the World.

Come on an adventure, far away across the sea to the mysterious St Kilda to discover its story.

Reviews for Not the End of the World: From the illustrator of the bestselling The Golden Mole

'a picture book that celebrates the island’s history and culture' * Books from Scotland * 'a magnificent and magical book that takes a place that is on the edge of the imagination for most who have heard of it and turns it into somewhere beguiling and entrancing for the young readers and listeners it's intended for' -- Ken Lussey * Undiscovered Scotland * 'a magical, thought-provoking book to share with children of all ages that is so rich and immersive in detail that it will leave you feeling you too might even have fleetingly visited [St Kilda]! It will certainly leave you wanting to' -- Jo Bowers * Just Imagine *
