Set in a post-apocalyptic world steeped in magic and danger, a lost girl teams up with a ragtag group of creatures to save their forest – and the world – in this awe-inspiring graphic novel from incredible Australian creator Andrea Innocent.
After a great flood wipes out her home, Lamington finds herself alone in the battered Australian wilderness. She spends her days searching for food in the eerie abandoned suburbs, never losing hope that one day she’ll be reunited with her mother.
When she stumbles upon a community of animals hidden deep underground, she is astonished to discover she can understand them. The animals are protecting the heart of the forest, but it grows weaker with each passing day and will soon die without help.
Together with her new friends, Lamington must embark on a perilous journey in search of a precious library of seeds to regrow the forest. But they aren’t the only ones who want the seeds…
With extraordinary full-colour artwork, Lamington Left Behind is a middle-grade adventure story that will captivate readers with its richly detailed world, twisting plot and vivid cast of characters – including brave koalas, talking mushrooms and a gang of feral children.
