If you relish writing which pushes the envelope with the unconventional, Snowcub is for you. Graham Fulbright has struck gold with his quintet of soft animal toys and their shared dreamstate metamorphoses into sharp-minded, flesh-and-blood creatures. Whereas Moby Dicks creator thought domesticated dogs and horses Mans cleverest mind readers, Graham looks to the wild side for natures shrewdest judges of human nature. But he also rings the changes, putting words into the mouths and beaks of creatures unable to think straight because of unwittingly parodying humankind. And, as is often the case with Graham, language comes under the microscope.
Theres no shying away from the fact that the main thrust of this novel will sit uneasily on some readers consciences. An intrepid teenager has thrown down the gauntlet: face up to the inconvenient truth that most of us think animals exist to do with as we see fit.

Under this heroic creatures leadership and armed with lessons learnt from their encounters with animal life across the globe the novels five goodwill ambassadors become a young girls mental support agents in defence of the planets threatened fauna.
