Description

The man in the mountain lay dozing for years
And all kinds of music would play in his ears… 

The man in the mountain loves the view from his home of the ocean and forest, but he yearns to see more of the world. Yet whenever he tries to move, he terrifies the woodland creatures around him. Only a small, well-travelled cuckoo is brave enough to come to his rescue… Inspired by themes of freedom and friendship, Man in the Mountain is a charming rhyming story that evokes the beauty of the natural world. Illustrator Gaia D’Alconzo brings Natalie Ramm’s verse to life with playful and heartwarming illustrations.
