Seekers: Return to the Wild Series

(0 review)

Following the brilliant success of the Seekers series by Erin Hunter, here is yet another an animal adventure fantasy series for middle-grade readers aged 8+ full of nature connection, spirituality and a sense of family and belonging.

These books continue the journeys of the four bears search for their home in Seekers. We meet Toklo, Kallik, Lusa, and Yakone's again, and they are finally going home. But found family is a powerful thing, and over the course of the books they will realise just how strong their bond is. Of course they will fall into some trouble, but thanks to Ujurak's lasting spirit, the bears find their way back to each other and get their happy endings.

The series is perfect for fans of the Warriors series and The Last Wild Trilogy. If you enjoyed these books and are looking for more books like them, check out our Best Animal Stories for 9 and 10 Year Olds blog post.
