Raising Hare

Already tipped by the Bookseller as "a future classic of nature writing", Raising Hare is one of the most gorgeous tales of human-animal connection out there - iNews

Raising Hare is a glorious book - for its warmth, its precision, its joy. It's not dreamy or romantic about the natural world - it's something far better than that - KATHERINE RUNDELL

I savoured every carefully chosen and perfectly polished word and I cared so deeply about Hare that I found myself holding my breath . . . This is more than a wildlife memoir, it's a philosophical masterpiece ruminating on our place as human beings in nature - CLARE BALDING

Raising Hare is an astounding achievement. Not since I read Salar the Salmon by Henry Williamson have I witnessed such insight into a creature of the wild. This is a great and important tale for our times, for all of us, in the same league as Ted Hughes, Alice Oswald, Thomas Hardy and indeed Henry Williamson himself. I am so pleased Chloe Dalton told us about raising hare. I will not forget it and nor will anyone who reads it - MICHAEL MORPURGO

This book is exceptional. It made me smile out loud, such a magical tale of a world turned upside down by a fragile wild thing - a leveret lost, a life found. A simply wonderful story, profoundly beautiful - CHRIS PACKHAM

Written with tenderness and lyricism from someone who has taken the time to reconnect to nature and the wild within. A beautiful book - ANGELINA JOLIE

A beautiful book that makes you think profoundly about how we so often tune out the natural world around us. Chloe Dalton is a tender, curious, wise, mind-expanding guide, connecting readers with the wild we humans once knew so well. I will be recommending this to everyone - MATT HAIG

A captivating and uplifting story about a chance encounter that proved utterly transformative. Beautifully written, touching and thought-provoking. It's stayed with me weeks after finishing the final sentence - CATHY NEWMAN

Utterly bewitched by this marvel of nature writing by Chloe Dalton with glorious illustrations by Denise Nestor - CAROLINE SANDERSON

A moving, magical blend of memoir and nature writing . . . beautifully written, with a luminous, fairytale quality - JOHN O'CONNELL
