From the global bestseller of Big Panda and Tiny Dragon, our two friends return to undertake a beautifully illustrated and poignant journey. This time the pair are on a quest to find the most beautiful place in the world.

On discovering a map that promises to lead them there, the search takes Big Panda and Tiny Dragon on a demanding expedition through tough terrain. The pair traverse dark forests, hazardous mountains, derelict ruins and dark caves.

There are times when the landscape threatens to overwhelm them, but together they keep walking. Each environment, so menacing at first, slowly yields pockets of light, life and beauty.

This is a story of a life-affirming friendship, of struggle and hope, and the immense power of looking for beauty in the most unlikely places.

A Beautiful World is out now. Grab your UK copies here or, better, via your local bookshop or Bookshop.org.
