This collaboration between design tutor Owen Churcher and former Children's Laureate of Ireland Niamh Sharkey is a wonderful non-fiction find that packs in a lot of nature information as well as introducing us to the magical leaflings. Each leafling has a distinct character and role - Hiroki prepares the branches for blossom while Flann minds the web of roots that connect the copse or forest. This is an absorbing and brilliantly designed book to spark imagination and curiosity about the wonderful (and global) world of trees. * Absolutely Education *
This interactive picturebook by the well-known Niamh Sharkey and newcomer Owen Churcher contains a wealth of tree knowledge. Our guides, the leaflings, invite us into their world where we learn about the familiar oak and holly, and the perhaps lesser-known and fascinating kapok or Huangshan pine. The illustrations, flaps to lift and text will keep busy readers entertained over many rereadings. This is a celebration of the majesty and beauty of trees and all who love and protect them.
