Ink House by Rory Dobner

Welcome to the Ink House, a mysterious artist’s mansion, built on a reservoir of ink, that was abandoned when computers took over from writing by hand, and emails replaced letters.

One day Freddie Foxglove, an enterprising fox, discovers the dilapidated house and decides it's the perfect place to spend winter hibernation. More animals arrive from the forest, and then, from further afield, from Prunella Shears, the gardening bee, to Geraldine the Giraffe, and as the house exerts its magical influence, the animals embrace creative pursuits, including writing, reading and studying the stars. The animals enjoy a magical winter with the Annual Ink Extravaganza party, until spring arrives and a strange sight appears on the horizon.

This new book by the artist Rory Dobner featuring his character illustrations, is one that is full of magic, creativity and wonder, that would make the perfect gift or as a personal treat.
