The River by Colin Dann

The River by Colin Dann

As the animals of Farthing Wood travel on their dangerous journey from the ruins of their old home to reach the safety of White Deer Park, nothing they have faced so far has seemed more dangerous than the wide, fast-flowing river they must now cross. The author also wrote "In the Grip of Winter".

Dann, Colin: - Colin Dann was born in Richmond in 1943. After leaving the local Grammar School he worked first for a large textile company before his real love--the world of books--brought him a job in publishing at William Collins in London where he worked as a manager in the Fontana paperback division. During this time, in odds hours at home, he wrote his first book The Animals of Farthing Wood which was published finally in 1979 by William Heinemann after several rejections. It was an immediate success, winning the Arts Council of Great Britain's National Book Award for Children's Literature and has been translated into sixteen languages. The book has never been out of print since first publication. Six sequels and one prequel have followed and enjoyed similar success.
