Always beautifully illustrated with touching stories and educational content, you can browse our full book collection here.

Our Book of the Week:
This week we are focusing on gardening, seeds are being planted in the greenhouse over here, we're in a bit of a frost pocket so a little later than in other places perhaps. The Little Gardener by Julie A. Cerny is part how-to teaching guide, part inspiration and fully beautiful and engaging.

It's for slightly older children and it's a fairly substantial book but it's something that can be pored over, contemplated and digested in somewhat the same way as a recipe book. There's so much in it, which makes sense, as there's so much to gardening! For those who are starting to get interested in growing this would make such a fab gift, or for the parent who wants to inspire their child into the wonder of connecting with the natural world, it's a great book.
