A Concrete Eden

Description

Beneath the cracked pavements of New York City lies a world no human has ever truly seen – a hidden civilisation known as the Emere. Small, bright-eyed, and endlessly curious, these creatures live in the shadows of our footsteps, in a labyrinth of canyons and caverns carved by time and rain. To them, every crack is a cliff, every puddle an ocean, and every falling raindrop a potential disaster.

When two young Emere, Acorn and Wiggle, discover a mysterious old map, they set out on a daring journey beyond the safety of their home. Along the way, they uncover lost inventions, encounter strange creatures, and learn the truth about the ancient world above their own – a world of giants. But adventure soon turns to peril, as their explorations draw the attention of powerful forces both within and beyond their realm.

A Concrete Eden is a beautifully imagined tale of courage, friendship, and discovery – a story that reveals the extraordinary life that might exist just beneath our feet.

Full of warmth, wonder, and striking imagination, this is a timeless adventure for readers young and old who have ever stopped to stare at a crack in the pavement and wondered what lies below.

After reading it, you may never walk across a city sidewalk in quite the same way again.
