Why does he dislike the owl-tree so much? Does it have a secret to tell Joe? And how can he, a boy too scared even to climb the tree, be the one to save it?

Review

'Engagingly illustrated ... cheerful, fast-moving romp.' (Carousel)

A splendid mix of Gothic horror and cartoon-style fun ... Readers are presented with an engaging plot which hurtles along ... Grim and ghoulish events are recounted with dry humour and young readers will laugh out loud at the cheerful absurdities of the story (The Bookbag)

'From the moment they claw their way out of a graveyard you know you are onto a winner.' (Publishing News)

'Fast-paced and accompanied by Mould's own dark illustrations, The Wooden Mile is a riveting read for newly independent readers.' (Bookfest)
