Step down in size and immerse yourself in the miniature world that is the domain of Treadwell Toad Esq. This is no ordinary toad but a real Jack the Lad, complete with cockney accent. Follow Treadwell on his journey in and around his lakeside surroundings but Treadwell is not confined to this location; he will become airborne in a way the reader can never imagine. Take a flight of fancy with Owen the Owl and other residents of the natural world. Indulge yourself in a birds' eye view of the earth and man's impact on it in this series of engaging short stories. "Genesis" will lead you through a forest of characters across different species with individual tales about life from their perspective. There are highs and lows that the reader will identify with as the characterisation develops - a mirror of human life, and a compelling desire to follow these creatures on their life's journey. "Genesis" is a charming tale that will appeal to children and adults alike.
