The four friends discover an injured fox in the garden and need to take it to an animal rescue centre. There, they begin a year of discovery learning about the
amazing animals, plants and places that make up our
natural world.
As the year goes on the children talk to lots of different people, from

biodiversity, food chains and
climate change to
pollination, plastic pollution and
