The Mossy Story
Our new book The Mossy Story is fresh from the printers and ready to be sent out to bookcases and bookshelves across the country. We’ve been busy sending out copies to everyone who pre-ordered on our website shop and there is even a copy on the way to Japan!
We are excited to receive our first book review, thank you to Mike who listened to the audio book and says:
“I was charmed by Tina the tea-loving tardigrade, and wise moss. An inspirational story which captures the charm of a child’s daydream and reawakens the hope that we can stop chasing the carbon giant and help nature get healthy again.”
The story has been inspired by the How to Bury the Giant project, with themes of mosses, climate action, giants and tiny actions for a brighter greener future.
When his class is learning about climate change, Jay imagines a carbon giant instead. Little does he know that this daydream is the start of a very big, very small adventure into the magical world of moss.
Join Jay as he travels with his Nana on an unforgettable journey, featuring dancing tardigrades, sleeping giants and the small things we can all do to build a brighter, greener future.
Written by Micha Colombo. Graphic design by Devon Tipping.
You can also listen to Micha reading A Mossy Story here. We’ve made this audio version freely available to you because we believe that everyone should be supported to take creative steps towards a brighter greener future.
The Mossy Story is available to purchase for £12 which includes UK postage. Please contact us if you’d like to purchase multiple copies or require worldwide postage: hello@artandenergy.org

Inspired by Micha’s words, a group from the University of Plymouth Illustration BA and MA took part in The Mossy Book illustration event. This has lead to the beautiful illustrations in this publication, with Devon Tipping and Mikayla Schuler bringing the story to life with their beautiful illustrations.
