What's the point of soil? What's it ever done for us?

From hosting billions of worms to minibeasts and microbes, to being the home of fungi that could allow trees to talk, to providing enough nutrients to feed a planet... you'll never look at soil the same way again!

Created in partnership with the National Trust, this is the first in a gorgeously illustrated natural science series about the wonderful, life-giving, miraculous stuff everything on our planet needs to survive: Earth, Water, Air, and Fire (the Sun).

Wonder World: Earth by Ben Lerwill explores these essential elements and their incredible roles in sustaining life on our planet.
