The Adventures of Horatio Mowzl – Volume Three: ‘The Great Rising’ Review
The Adventures of Horatio Mowzl – Volume Three: ‘The Great Rising’ By Paul Thornycroft
Book description: I love these children’s books and would highly recommend them for your children. “The Great Rising brings us to the dramatic climax of this, the third volume in the Mowzl Trilogy. Having learned ‘purling’ – how to dream into Mowzl-sized woollen pouches – the children purl in the Glade talking the wild talk with creatures of all kinds. Their purling then takes them on adventures worldwide, discovering Wild Nature for themselves. Their eyes and hearts are opened; the wild web is revealed as alive and aware – as something they are intimately part of; they see the terrible damage to Wild Nature and feel it as wounding to themselves. Shocked, they resolve to act urgently to transform the way grown-ups see Nature. Their enthusiasm spreads throughout their school, where they start projects which soon spread from their school to other schools across the country; these projects, and the art of purling, spread around the world – and the Great Rising begins”

About The Author
Hi, I’m Dr. Mya-Rose Craig. I am a 19-year-old prominent British-Bangladeshi ornithologist, environmentalist, diversity activist as well as an author, speaker and broadcaster. At age 11 I started the popular blog Birdgirl, and at age 17 I became the youngest person to see half of the birds in the world.
Lyrical, poignant and insightful.’ - Margaret Atwood
This is my story; a journey defined by my love for these extraordinary creatures. Because large or small, brown, patterned or jewelled, there is something about birds that makes us, even for just moments at a time, lift our eyes away from our lives and up to the skies.
