The Trees That Ate Us

The Breathing Forest: Don't Close Your Eyes

Whatever you do, don't climb the fence.

Ten-year-old Leo and his best friend Tessa thought they were just retrieving a lost football. But the woods behind the garden are older than time, and they've been waiting a century for someone new to play with.

In a world where the trees have heartbeats and the ground breathes like a sleeping giant, Leo and Tessa must navigate a forest that changes with every step. With only a glowing leaf-map and a flickering torch to guide them, they face:

• The Shadow-Hunters: Dark creatures that steal your favorite memories.
• The Maze of Mirrors: Where the trees show you exactly what you want to see-to keep you there forever.
• The Heart of the Oak: A monstrous, pulsing tree that demands a terrifying price for freedom.

Will they find the Golden Gate back to reality, or will they become part of the forest's collection of lost things?

A spooky, high-stakes adventure for fans of Goosebumps and The Chronicles of Narnia. Perfect for readers aged 7-10 who love a story that tingles their spine!
