Embark on a captivating animal tale from the acclaimed War Horse author and former Children's Laureate, Michael Morpurgo. Ten-year-old Billy, tormented at school and badgered in his aunt's high-rise flat, finds solace in the wild expanse near the canal. There, he observes a young swan and safeguards a family of fox cubs. But when his secret haven is uncovered and the fox family devastated, Billy—feeling unwanted and unloved—flees with the sole surviving cub.

This riveting and touching animal adventure comes from the masterful pen behind 'An Eagle in the Snow', 'Listen to the Moon', 'Shadow', and 'An Elephant in the Garden'. Morpurgo, a literary giant in children's literature, has penned over forty books, including the globally renowned 'War Horse', which Steven Spielberg adapted for the silver screen in 2011.

Morpurgo's storytelling prowess has earned him numerous accolades, including the Whitbread Award, Smarties Award, Circle of Gold Award, and Children's Book Award. His works have been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal four times, and several have been adapted for stage and screen, such as 'My Friend Walter', 'Why the Whales Came', and 'Kensuke's Kingdom'. Beloved by children, teachers, and parents alike, Morpurgo's 'Little Foxes' promises to be another spellbinding tale from this master of children's literature.

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.’
