Pari Thomson's enchanting debut, "Greenwild: The World Behind The Door", kicks off a mesmerising adventure series, beautifully illustrated by Elisa Paganelli. This captivating tale has garnered numerous accolades, including the Overall Waterstones Children's Book Prize and Blackwell's Children's Book of the Year, while also claiming a spot on the New York Times bestseller list.

Step into a realm where nature pulsates with life and ancient magic surges from the very earth. Follow Daisy Thistledown as she flees her boarding school, driven by the need to unravel the mystery of her mother's disappearance. Her quest takes her across London and through a concealed portal into the Greenwild, a world teeming with extraordinary plants and brimming with magic.

But danger lurks in this wondrous land. Daisy soon finds herself facing a sinister force that imperils the green magic on both sides of the mysterious door. To overcome this threat, save her mother, and protect both worlds, she must join forces with an eccentric plant expert, a boy with the gift of animal communication, and a rather opinionated cat. Together, they must harness the power to rejuvenate the Greenwild and complete Daisy's mission.

Embark on an unforgettable journey through the Greenwild in this spellbinding fantasy with an ecological twist. Shortlisted for the Books Are My Bag Readers Award, longlisted for the Yoto Carnegie Medal for Writing, and hailed as The Times Children's Book of the Week, this novel has been praised by critics and fellow authors alike. The Telegraph dubbed it "an eco-thriller novel every child should read", while M. G. Leonard, author of Beetle Boy, described it as "a thrilling adventure that takes seed in your imagination and runs wild!" Aisling Fowler, author of Fireborn, simply exclaimed, "I adored this book!"

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
