About this listen

The breathtaking sequel to the stunning By Ash, Oak and Thorn, from acclaimed nature writer and Costa Award-shortlisted novelist Melissa Harrison.

As autumn begins, Moss and friends travel to their former home in Ash Row to find the rare mortal child who can both see and talk to them.

The tiny beings know they should be brave and talk back - this is their chance to help reverse the fading of ancient Cumulus, who has now almost disappeared entirely.

But they soon realise fading is connected to their role in the world.... Can the Hidden Folk prove that guardians of the Wild World are needed after all?

A tale of disappearing wilderness that couldn't be more relevant in today's environmental crisis, brought to life for children by three funny, eternal tiny beings - the hidden folk.

This story about little folk and their adventures is adorable. For young at heart and children who still believe in fairies at the bottom of the garden. Filled with adventure

Absolutely loved it. I was engrossed from the start. I'm sure my grandson would love it as much as I did. Great production and wonderful narrator.

Beautiful!

I really enjoyed the first installment in this series and the second does not disappoint. The production is still supported by beautiful music and sound effects and the story is delightful. I you want a lovely cosy book to listen to, give this a try!

A lovely sequel

My girls, age 8 & 10, and I have really enjoyed these stories of the hidden folk. They’ve captured our hearts and imaginations and there have been tears and laughter along the way. This story like the first weaves in important topics of mental health and emotional literacy which have created some good discussions in are home. The story got wrapped up a little abruptly for our liking though. A couple of chapters from the end we felt sure there would be another book to wrap things up as there didn’t seem like enough time to do so, but it ended well and as one would hope even if perhaps a little confusing with some unanswered questions. All in all though, thoroughly enjoyable and I highly recommend these stories.

A lovely sequel that touches on important topics

absolutely loved this book, and was quite upset when I reached the end. I truly hope that Melissa writes another in the series. the narrator is brilliant, really bringing the characters to life. despite being aimed at a younger audience, I'm 44 and loved it. I have bought the books too.

just beautiful

Accidentally listened to book 2 before book 1 so in that sense a little confusing. However, this is a brilliant book in the way it is read and written keeps your focus and promotes wanting to listen more than some of the monotone adult books.

Captivating even for adults!

A wonderful story for adults and children. A lesson taught in a most delightful and thoughtful way.

Wonderful

This is the story of the hidden folks’ second journey, their adventures, the new people they meet and the discoveries they make about themselves & their destination. I liked that their quest evolved as they progressed, especially with the realisations towards the end of the book. The soundtrack includes different birdsong & sounds from nature at appropriate moments & music that provides reflective pauses. It becomes part of the story & is a clever aural version of book illustrations. I very much enjoyed this audible version & can imagine it becoming a favourite for long journeys & cosy afternoons.

An enchanting story with an equally enchanting & exquisite soundtrack
