Elias Martin

by Nicola Davies, Fran Shum (Illustrator)

Overview

Elias Martin lives a scowling, solitary life for a decade until a small, lost child wanders into his path. One in a series of illustrated short stories that explore the deeper, darker side of our connection with the natural world, this tale was inspired by ancient folklore. Read it and feel a little bit of magic, a few shivers down the spine.
