What if wildlife wasn't something we saw on nature documentaries, but something that lived in our gardens
When Ali and Poppy hear about wild gardening at school, they immediately start to dream about all the adventures they could have if they invited the wild into their garden.They speak to their parents, and soon set to work transforming their ordinary back garden into a beautifully (and slightly less tidy) place, full of wild flowers and butterflies, where they can see hedgehogs and migrating birds, fox cubs and hummingbird hawk moths...
Our Wild Garden is a stunning picturebook about rewilding and forming a meaningful, rewarding relationship with the natural world at a young age.
Daniel Seton is an editor and picture book author who lives in Dorchester, Dorset. He has a small garden which he is in the process of wilding, and it already has a visiting hedgehog.Pieter Fannes lives and works in Brussels with his wife and two sons. Their tiny city garden is visited by lots of local birds. Luckily, their cat is afraid of them! From his nearby workshop, Pieter can see out over the rooftops and watch a nest of blue tits as he paints.
