Yorsh the Elf finds himself in the unlikely company of two humans and their pet dog. Humans and elves do not get on! But stranger things are happening in the world, with the endless rain, the floods and the ensuing disasters. When Yorsh happens upon a prophecy in a cave, he realises that his journey will have an even greater significance than simply being his attempt to avoid the weather! Heart-warming and truly original, this wonderful novel brings to readers an utterly charming character whose innocence and style are irresistible.
