Books by Matt Whyman

The official children's book to the Netflix original documentary series, Our Planet, with a foreword by Sir David Attenborough.

Failure is an Option is the story of an average runner who sets out to discover just how far he can go. Matt Whyman leaves behind the Saturday morning 5K to push towards 100-mile ultramarathons and beyond. The results are entertaining from start to finish, often very funny and at times deeply moving.

Hercules isn't big or clever, but Emma is determined. She'll do everything, she promises... From the author of Pig in the Middle
