Michael Morpurgo Trio

Three epic animal tales from the maestro. Stories of war and survival, loss, destruction, hardship and hope – and of the very special animals that stay by the side of their human companions through all the trials that they face. Showcasing some of Michael Morpurgo’s very best writing, these moving stories pay tribute to the human-animal bond, and to the comfort that it brings us in dark times. From the Indian Ocean tsunami to the Second World War and the horror of the foot-and-mouth farming crisis, can three young people and their faithful creature companions find new hope in one another?
