An essential guide to encourage children to explore, enjoy and benefit from the natural world around them

An essential guide to encourage children to explore, appreciate and benefit from the natural world around them.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Children are used to hearing about how important it is to protect nature, but they may not fully understand how the natural world can positively impact their emotional wellbeing. With that in mind, Nature and Me looks to show children how nature can be fun, uplifting, consoling and even offer companionship.

This is a book about how nature can touch us all and help us with our lives (especially when we might be feeling bored, sad or lonely).

This is an inspirational book, not just educating children about the natural world, but teaching them to love and connect with it. Beautiful illustrations and a tone that is encouraging, warm and accessible make it easy for children, and their favourite adults, to relate to.

  • The School of Life: Relationships
    Few things promise us greater happiness than our relationships, yet few things more reliably deliver misery and frustration. Our error is to suppose that we are born knowing how to love and that managing a relationship might therefore be intuitive and easy. The School of Life: Relationships starts from a different premise: that love is a skill to be learnt,...

  • What They Forgot to Teach You at School
    We probably went to school for what felt like a very long time. We probably took care with our homework. Along the way, we surely learnt intriguing things about equations, the erosion of glaciers, the history of the Middle Ages, and the tenses of foreign languages. But why, despite all the lessons we sat through, were we never taught the...

  • Big Ideas for Curious Minds
    Children are, in many ways, born philosophers. Without prompting, they ask some of the largest questions: about time, mortality, happiness, and the meaning of it all. Yet sadly, too often, this inborn curiosity is not developed, and with age, the questions fall away. Big Ideas for Curious Minds is a book designed to harness children's spontaneous philosophical instinct and to...
