Tamlin's Great Adventure

Victoria Byron

A tale of friendship between a girl and her horse and a trip around the world, where the grass isn’t always greener.

Home is the best place on Earth, but an adventure is equally great. Tamlin is a very lucky horse with a great friend, Ruby. One day, a little bird tells Tamlin about the wide world, and he is intrigued. So, he sets off on a whirlwind adventure across the world.

  • Picture book tells the story of home vs. adventure, when Tamlin, a horse, travels the wide world a bird tells him about.
  • Explores themes of longing and dissatisfaction, friendship and home, and asks if the “grass is greener on the other side”.
  • Heartwarming illustrations showcasing actual locations all across the world.

“Imaginative and tender, with a happy, hopeful conclusion. ” —Kirkus Reviews (U.S.)

Victoria Byron lives in the UK with her husband and two children. She was an art teacher before obtaining an MA in Children’s Book Illustration and becoming a full-time illustrator. One of Victoria’s earliest memories is looking up into an old apple tree and seeing a face on the markings of a tiny apple. The rest of her childhood was spent outdoors inventing characters from snails, leaves and acorns, which has helped her create children’s stories.
