Because adults need picture books too!

In Amber Fossey's (AKA @Zeppelinmoon) beautiful first book, we

are each reminded to listen, to look, to feel, and to remember what it
is that makes us human.
This beautiful illustrated guide to life tells the reader how to become
wild and free again, through a mash-up of poetry, fables, comic
fiction and whimsical watercolour illustrations. Using the characters
of sloth, bear, manatee, blob fish, and many more, we are shown
that we no longer need to surrender to negative thoughts nor those
who drag us down, and are prompted to ponder the beauty all
around, reminding us how to simply love one another, and
ourselves, again.

Do you ever hear the beasts scratching at the door? They want to be
let out, to be wild & free!

They were sleeping too long, and now they're getting feisty. Don't
be afraid, they're pretty lovely inside, and never did i see a more
lovely beast than you...

So come inside. You might be surprised, to remember how to feel

alive!

With a heart to feel, a mind to learn & hands to build extraordinary

things.

Go forth, fiercely, bravely.

A former NHS doctor and forensic psychiatrist, Amber's work with
severely mentally ill patients in hospitals, prisons and the
community inspired her to write messages of finding hope amidst
adversity in Be Wild Be Free. She encourages us to have
compassion for those that society rejects, mistreats and ignores and
for those suffering mental anguish. We are prompted to ponder the
beauty all around, reminding us how to simply love one another,
and ourselves, again.
