Reviews

If youre looking for a book that will soothe the mind and fill the heart with joy, this is the book you need. The woodland creatures and pleasing colour palette are calming and sweet. Not the mention the storyline of all the things going to sleep to welcome in the night was beautifully done. * Oz Book Snail *
An enchanting exploration of everyday miracles. Splendiferous! * Kirkus starred review *
Ignites the readers interest in simple everyday wonders. * The Financial Times *
A wonderful book for inspiring a love of the natural world * The Bookseller *
Fifty moments in nature are captured in slowed-down double page spreads: a cresting wave, a hatching chick, a bee pollinating a flower. The effect is magical. -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
