Follow the yellow road and embark on a fantastical journey through surreal landscapes full of curious details and bizarre characters. A brilliantly inventive picture book adventure from the acclaimed creator of The Dog Walk.

Sam wakes up in a strange fairytale land of small folk and talking animals, with no idea where he is. How will he get home? "Take the yellow road" says The-One-Who-Knows-Everything.

Equipped with a very useful backpack and an optimistic attitude, Sam travels through fantastical landscapes, encountering giggly giraffes, fearsome trolls, a gruff submarine captain and a magical painting. Sometimes the yellow road disappears entirely. Will Sam ever find his way home?

Beloved Swedish children's illustrator Sven Nordqvist (The Dog Walk) unleashes his endlessly inventive talent once again in this brilliantly bizarre odyssey about perseverance and the kindness of strangers. Children will pore over each page, delighting in the incredible details in Nordqvist's whimsical and often hilarious illustrations.
