Description

The multi-award-winning 'Run With the Wind' series

'Don't forget', said the old fox, 'if danger threatens, run with the wind ...'

In the Land of Sinna, Black Tip, Vickey, Old Sage Brush, Fang, Hop-along and the rest of the foxes living around Beech Paw are in trouble. They are being hunted, trapped and harried and have no choice but to set out in search of the secret of survival.

As they journey through countryside and city, facing many dangers along the way, they find new friendships and rediscover what it means to be 'as cunning as a fox'.

'Entertainment and suspense at it's very best, it is the Watership Down of the fox world.' The Irish Times

'A wildlife winner for all ages.' The Sunday Independent

Back in print, one of the most popular Irish wildlife stories of all time

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
