About the book

Oliver and the Old Map is a picture book about curiosity. About the itch to know where a line goes. About small explorations that turn ordinary afternoons into adventures.

For ages 2–5. Reads aloud in about 6–8 minutes. A favourite of children who like to ask "where does this lead?"

A note from the author

This book is for the kids who notice the dog-eared corner of a drawer, or the loose floorboard, or the path you can almost see through the trees. Curiosity is its own kind of bravery.
