Earthkeeper - the Second Adventure of Arthur

Following on from 'Lost in the Woods - The Adventure of Arthur' this illustrated, 8,500 word story is for a slightly older age group of nine to thirteen year olds.
In 'EarthKeeper - The Second Adventure of Arthur' the boy is selected for a magical task by the Giant Oak. In a walled garden out of time and out of place, he is to find and grow the plants he chooses, preserving them from accident and devastation.
The 'Arthur Series' of stories comes from a deep green place in the middle of the woods. The stories defy convention and seek to build a respect, knowledge and interaction with nature for young people.
