Description

I am as brown as brown can be,
And my eyes as black as sloe;
I am as brisk as brisk can be,
And wild as forest doe.
(The Child Ballads, 295)

So begins a beautiful tale of love, loss and revenge. Following the seasons, A Pocketful of Crows balances youth and age, wisdom and passion and draws on nature and folklore to weave a stunning modern mythology around a nameless wild girl.

Beautifully illustrated by Bonnie Helen Hawkins, this is a stunning and original modern fairytale.

I am as brown as brown can be,

(The Child Ballads, 295)

So begins a beautiful tale of love, loss...
