Woodland Magic

The complete magical adventure series from the bestselling author of Unicorn Academy, brimming with drama and an environmental theme, perfect for listeners aged five and up.

The Keepers are a secretive tribe of little people who live at the heart of the Whispering Woods, caring for the countryside and rewilding it when humans (or Ruffins, as they call them) are careless with it.

Fox Cub Rescue
Young Keepers Cora and Jax have just finished school and are embarking on a trial, with several friends, to become fully fledged Keepers. But their first venture out on their own ends in disaster when they spend too long playing in the Ruffin children's playground instead of concentrating on their task. Can they ever be trusted to be Keepers in their own right?

Deer in Danger
Young Keepers Cora and Jax need to prove themselves or risk being sent back to school. While building a hedgehog highway by making holes at the bottom of fences on a new housing estate, they come upon a deer trapped in the foundations of a building site. Their woodland magic isn't strong enough to help the deer escape, but what should they do? They won't be able to complete their task in time if they go to get help for the deer.

Stranded Otter
Young Keepers Cora and Jax are looking forward to the Moonlight Party raft race - with the help of their friend Trix they have built a special raft. But at the same time they are beginning to wonder if they'll ever become fully trained Keepers, despite all their rewilding efforts. Then, after an exciting expedition to build a bug hotel and salvage supermarket food waste, they come across a young otter stranded in the stream. Suddenly the raft has a much more important role than Cora ever imagined.

Operation Owl
On their very first venture into the Big Outside as fully trained Keepers, Cora and Jax come across a barn owl tangled in discarded fishing line. Determined to help free it, Jax climbs on to the owl's back to loosen the cord, but the owl takes to the air - with Jax on board. Will Cora ever see him again?
