Prepare to be inspired by Hannah Gold’s tales of April and Bear from The Last Bear, winner of the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize 2022 and Blue Peter Book Award 2022, and Rio and White Beak in her new novel The Lost Whale.

Can you imagine making friends with a polar bear or a grey whale? Are you passionate about protecting our planet? Gold’s unforgettable adventures celebrate the love between children and nature and show that no one is too young or insignificant to make a difference.

Gold grew up in a family where books, animals, and the beauty of the outside world were ever present and is now passionate about writing stories that share her love of the planet. The Last Bear became an instant classic and international bestseller upon release in 2021.
