One winter's day, Chloe Dalton went for a countryside walk and discovered a newborn baby hare - no bigger than her hand - chased by a dog and separated from its mother.
Worried for its safety, Chloe took the tiny hare home and learned how to feed and care for it . . . and an extraordinary friendship began.
This is the true tale of how Chloe and the hare, with its drumming paws and distinctive charm, lived alongside each other until the time came for it to return to the wild.
But when the hare is finally ready to jump over the garden wall, will Chloe ever see it again?
Featuring a postscript by Michael Morpurgo and beautiful illustrations throughout by Denise Nestor.
Raising Hare is Chloe Dalton's debut book and was an instant Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller. Chloe divides her time between working as a political adviser and foreign policy specialist in London and her home in the English countryside. Raising Hare was also shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize and the Women's Prize for Non-Fiction, and was selected as a Waterstones Book of the Year and as the Hay Festival Book of the Year. It was a Critics Best Books pick for The Times, Financial Times, Guardian, Spectator and iNews and was a Waterstones Non-Fiction Book of the Month.
