About the author
Amber Fossey
5 books41 followersAmber Fossey is the NHS-doctor-turned-artist behind Zeppelinmoon, the hugely popular Instagram account and Etsy store with 200k followers. As an expert in mental health, her uplifting and wickedly funny illustrated stories of weird and wonderful creatures are inspired by her experiences with all the dark & glorious facets of the human spirit and a fascination with animals.
Throughout Amber's 12-year career in psychiatry she worked with severely mentally ill patients in hospitals, prisons and the community, and encountered the grey areas of sanity. She is driven by a deep-rooted compassion for those that society rejects, mistreats and ignores and for those suffering mental anguish. She believes all souls, human and animal, deserve to be loved and treated as equals. This manifests in her art where she often champions the unloved, the feared and the endangered.
In her debut book, Amber brings together many of her favourite characters from the Zeppelinmoon Instagram account. They tell a story about love and compassion, making us laugh along the way with her trademark cheeky style.

for the lonely,
the kids who befriend bugs,
the big people who are gentle with small things,
for those who prefer to sit with trees and converse with dogs.
you are not alone.
The Pound Project are an independent publisher who focus on the writers and crowdfund for their limited releases, which tend to cost as little as £5.
Tania has become somewhat of a collector and I am finally getting around to catching up on them.
This book is a loving ode to nature and a charming read. It reminds the reader that all living things are connected and all rely on the delicate balance between each other to survive. Heart-warming and moving. A solid 4 stars.

It’s subtle, bittersweet, and a bit of a tear jerker.
