Finders of Silverthorn Forest - by Rachel Chivers Khoo (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

While hunting for a time capsule that his grandma buried in the woods years ago, Max never expects to discover the home of a small magical creature. Nor does he expect that magical creature to have an extensive collection of lost items, all cataloged and labeled. Yet this is how he meets Tuftorious Snook, collector of lost objects, and just one of the many Finders living in Silverthorn Forest.

Thrilled by his discovery, Max can't wait to find out more about these extraordinary creatures. But when he accidentally breaks the most important rule - never steal - he's banished from their home. But with the woods under threat, can Max somehow find a way to save Tuft and the other Finders before it's too late?
