When Wiley is told he's "just another Florida Thing," he puts on his panther suit and disappears into a world that's wild, weird, and wonderfully his own.
Where the Florida Things Live is a vividly illustrated journey through the swamps, skies, and shorelines of the Sunshine State. Bursting with color, rhythm, and mischief, this book introduces readers to a menagerie of unforgettable Florida creatures-each with a story to tell and a stake in the place they call home. From bull gators to blue herons, Wiley meets the locals on their own turf... and discovers that wild places aren't just for running wild-they're worth protecting too.
Created by Florida-based artist and author Alice Absolutely, with illustrations by beloved St. Pete artist Kostar, this picture book blends Florida's untamed beauty with bold, offbeat artwork that pulls readers in: children will be captivated by the playful language and characters, while grown-ups will recognize a deeper message woven between the reeds. Florida's magic is fragile-and worth fighting for.
Packed with personality, the book also includes a conservation resource page to help families take real-world action to support native wildlife. The creatures are real. Their homes are real. And so is the danger they face.
With its punk-eco heart, swampy soul, and fearless voice, Where the Florida Things Live is a wild love letter to a state like no other-and an invitation for every reader to fall under its spell.
