Shortlisted for the Blue Peter Award 2007 'Best Book With Facts.' This is an unusual and lovely book from an award winning author and we're so pleased to see it on the shortlist for the Blue Peter Book Award ' Best book with Facts'. Alan Titchmarsh hit the nail on the head when he said about this book, 'This is such a great way of helping children to know wild flowers. I recommend it to any parent keen to pass on a love of nature to their children'.
Arranged in colour for speedy identification, with anecdotes from winsome characters, this child-friendly guide includes keynotes on plant parts and the seasons, along with a tick-box index for keen spotters. A beautiful reference book, colour-coded to help you name the wild flowers you see every day, in towns and cities as well as in the country. With a wild flower scrapbook to fill in and keep.
"Beautiful introduction to British wildflowers" - Glasgow Herald "This is a great way of helping Children to know wild flowers. I recommend this book to any parent keen to pass on a love of nature to their children.' - Alan Titchmarsh
