This beautiful book celebrates the work of over 100 animators across two years of production that brought Charlie's distinctive illustrations to life with full colour, hand-drawn traditional animation. The original globally adored story of the Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse is captured here in stills from the animated short film and handwritten words by Charlie Mackesy. 
 
&quot;I made a film with some friends about a boy, a mole, a fox and a horse - their journey together and the boy's search for home. I hope this book gives you courage and makes you feel loved.&quot; Love Charlie x

The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse: The Animated Story

Craig David

*** 
 
I'm still learning, still making mistakes, but I feel ready now - after a lot of twists and turns along the way - to share my journey with you. 
 
In his much-anticipated first book, celebrated singer-songwriter Craig David takes us on a journey of connecting, disconnecting and reconnecting, weaving together stories of his life and music - starting with his early days in Southampton working with The Artful Dodger, to his overnight chart-topping success, through to the present day, and everything in between. 
 
This is Craig as we've never seen him before - the always-positive showman, baring his soul for the first time. 
 
From physical pain, lost love, public humiliation and depression, Craig takes us past his comfort zone, in a raw, honest and courageous account of his own lived experience. In opening up about how he overcame these obstacles, Craig shares his insight and provides practical advice that will help us to navigate the daily challenges we all face. 
 
This is Craig's story of how he learned to tune into his best life.
