Overview

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For the child in all of us, a timeless illustrated story about connection and compromise brought to life with imagination, from the acclaimed author of Born a Crime   “But sooner or later your mother will find us,” Walter said, looking back at the house. “She always does.” The boy’s eyes lit up again. He had an idea. “Then this time we need to go where we’ve never gone before,” he said. “Into the uncut grass!” In the tradition of The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse comes a gorgeously illustrated fable about a young child’s journey into the world beyond the shadow of home, a magical landscape where he discovers the secrets of sharing, connection, and finding peace with the people we love. Infused with the author’s signature wit and imagination, in collaboration with visionary artist Sabina Hahn, it’s a tale for readers of all ages—to be read aloud or read alone.

“(Trevor) Noah has written a parable about decision-making. As he puts it . . . ‘It’s about disagreements and difference—but it’s also about how we bridge those gaps and find what matters most . . . It’s a picture book, but it’s not a children’s book. Rather, it is a book for kids to share with parents and for parents to share with kids.”—Kirkus Reviews “A moving tale about a young boy who embarks on a magical adventure beyond home, discovering the power of connection, sharing, and love. With Trevor Noah’s wit and Sabina Hahn’s artistry, this is a tale to read about and cherish.”—Tertulia, Editor’s Pick “Smart, charming, and poignant . . . tells the story of a young boy’s adventure beyond a world he already knows—one where he finds all kinds of lessons that are good for both people who read out loud and people to whom books are read out loud to hear.”—Town & Country, The 60 Must-Read Books of Fall 2024 “In Into the Uncut Grass, comedian and former The Daily Show host Trevor Noah tells the story of a young child’s journey into an enchanted realm that reveals the secrets of sharing, connection and love. This beautifully illustrated book will take readers of all ages on a magical journey.”—The Root
