This charming story captures the essence of feeling both small and big in a bustling world, seen through the eyes of a young boy. It begins with a simple walk to the park, where the little boy, feeling dwarfed by the busy streets, finds solace on his dad's shoulders. Up there, he feels as if he's soaring above the world, gaining a new perspective on everything around him.

As they reach the park, the boy discovers that being closer to the ground has its own magic. He starts to notice the small wonders of nature:

  • A busy squirrel scurrying about
  • A frog perched on a lily pad
  • A tiny ladybird fluttering nearby

These elements contribute to a sense of wonder and growth within him, making “Up High” not just a story, but a heartfelt journey that resonates with both children and adults. Illustrated by the talented Matt Hunt, known for his critically acclaimed work on A Whale of a Time, this book is presented in a distinctive, taller format that enhances its charm.

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.’
