Come Along and discover a joyous debut picture book rooted in the whimsical tradition of nonsense literature and based on the viral hit-sensation song

COME ALONG
Come along catch a Heffalump
Sit with me on a muddy clump
We’ll sing a song of days gone by . . .

Set sail on a timeless adventure with two rabbits determined not to get caught by the Hum-drum. Together, they discover a world of borogoves, slithy toves, and Heffalumps, ready to dance and sing ’til sundown.

Packed with nonsensical whimsy and anarchic joy, this book is a merry romp through the imaginative worlds of Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll.

SO... Come along! Get you gone and have some fun!

"A glorious tumble of words and images –- a joyful, foot-tapping, spirit-zinging extravagant gallivant of a story that torrents off the tongue and lifts the heart!"--Robert Macfarlane

"A delicious, rolling adventure through a magical world inhabited by humdrums, heffalumps, and rare type specimens. This book nourishes me with its nonsense and makes my spirit sing."-- Merlin Sheldrake, author of Entangled Life

"Embedded with references to children’s classics, including the works of Lewis Carroll and A. A. Milne, this jaunty, irresistible picture book stands to delight children and parents alike.” --Foreword, starred review

About the Author

Cosmo Sheldrake is a UK-based multi-instrumentalist, producer, composer, and live improviser.

Cosmo is committed to engaging musically with the living world, and he regularly travels on expeditions as a field recordist. He has pioneered an approach to sharing the publishing royalties of his new releases, attempting to directly return funds to the animals and places that have inspired -- and, in many cases, co-authored -- the music. Cosmo is a core member of the More Than Human Life Project, an interdisciplinary group working to deepen and expand legal frameworks to find new ways to protect the living world.
