The Island Vet: Devil Bird Island

Hay Festival 2025, 

Children’s author and vet Gill Lewis shares her new inspiring tale of wildlife adventure and conservation. A camping trip to count puffins on Devil Bird Island turns into a real adventure for friends Tia and Nat. First, they have to rescue a mysterious marine animal caught in a fishing net and swept very far from home. Then, when it gets dark, they hear strange wailing and something white and ghostly flies at their tent. Safely back home, they unravel the mysteries of the previous night and learn some important lessons about how everyone on the planet needs to look out for the wildlife around them.
