Serena and the Little Blue Dog

Rosemary Clunie (author)

A beautiful gift book and an original, modern fairy tale. Serena's adventure is full of charm and timeless magic, written in Rosemary Clunie's sparkling prose and illustrated in striking colour and collage.

'Once upon a time a little girl called Serena lived in a cottage in the woods. She was friends with all the birds and animals of the forest. But what she really wanted was a special friend of her own.'

When Serena meets the little blue dog, she names him Haiku and they become best of friends. But one day Haiku grows too big for Serena and her cottage in the woods. Together they travel to the edge of the forest, past fields of sunflowers and bright lakes to visit the green mountain bird, the red snake and the yellow fish. But it is the blue lady in a castle far away to the east who, by the magic of three stones, can help Serena find the answer.

Rosemary Clunie is a painter, printmaker and video artist, born in Scotland and living in Hampstead. She is a long-time collaborator of Ben Okri. Serena and the Little Blue Dog is her debut book for children.
