Discover the joy of growing things in this non-fiction nature picture book series from Axel Scheffler and the National Trust.

Tilly Plants a Tree introduces us to Tilly, who has been learning all about trees and is eager to grow one herself. When Grandma shows Tilly her special oak tree, they decide to collect an acorn from the ground and embark on a journey to grow their own tree. With help from their friends Worm and Ladybird, Tilly begins to nurture her very own oak tree.

Join Tilly as she watches it grow, with fun flaps to lift that reveal what's happening underground, and enjoy a big pop-up surprise at the end.

With a gentle story and simple facts explaining how plants grow, children will be inspired to get outside and follow the helpful tips to plant their own trees.

Featuring artwork from bestselling The Gruffalo illustrator Axel Scheffler, this new nature series from the National Trust is one for all the family to treasure!

Other titles in the series include: Sam Plants a Sunflower, Ben Plants a Butterfly Garden, and Tilly Plants a Tree.

Every Nosy Crow paperback picture book comes with a free "Stories Aloud" audio recording. Just scan the QR code and listen along!
