From the Indie Picture Book Award Winner 2024 Robert Tregoning, comes What the Crow Saw Below, a beautifully wirtten fable-like tale of hope, stunningly illustrated by Greg Stobbs.

On the tangled, twisted branches, in a tangled, twisted wood, stood a young crow, looking downward, like her elders said she should.

But the curious little crow soon starts to question why the older crows always look for danger below. If she can find the courage to look up and explore the world above the treetops, perhaps she might find the freedom she longs for?

Reviews for What the Crow Saw Below

""Bravery and reassurance are at the heart of this gorgeously illustrated rhyming picture book."" * Sally Morris, The Daily Mail * ""A terrific rhyming telling with descriptive language that excites and includes alliteration and other clever word play by Robert Tregoning and Greg Stobbs' illustrations that wonderfully complement the words, this is a joy to share with young listeners."" * Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub * ""DO judge this book by its cover, because it's BRILLIANT!! It's lovely to spot the creatures on the forest floor hiding in leaves, tails poking out or a shiny sniffy snout... great for reading together fun... Robert and Greg Stobbs, the illustrator, are a perfect pairing!"" * Nicci Rosengarten, The Kids Book Curator * ""A fable-like tale full of courage, freedom and belonging teaches us to form our own opinions in life."" * Deborah Maclaren, LoveReading4Kids *
