Worm has an irresistible longing to journey to
far-away lands. He sits on his rock, staring off into the distance. He’s joined by Bluebird, and Worm complains of his growing restlessness. Together, Worm and Bluebird go on a journey, flying over swamps and forests until they end up at the Mediterranean Sea. Bluebird would like to turn back, but Worm wants to travel the world and see all the forests.


Award winning author-illustrator Jenni Erkintalo’s picturebook takes a stand on the
state of forests around the world and introduces
different forest types to young readers through
an adventure story. Worm and the Forest is a
continuation of the award-winning book Worm and the Sea, published in 2019, in which the worm sailed the world’s seas.

Laura’s exuberant illustrations are rich with details: minimal yet expressive characters, colourful shapes, patterns and compositions often inspired by nature. Her approach to illustration and design is playful and experimental. Through curiosity, endless material exploration and the pure joy of drawing she creates a bold visual language found in her picture books, textiles, public artworks and community art projects. Laura’s works often include interactive, participatory elements that spark joy, imagination and a sense of wonder in their viewers.
