Reviews

'A beautiful, reflective, thoughtful book brimming with the joy of nature, the importance of our respect and stewardship of the world around us, but also witty and clear-sighted about the power of writing, of words and of education being what transforms us. A marvellous read from a National Treasure.' -- KATE MOSSE 'Our master storyteller' -- JOANNA LUMLEY 'He sees things clearly and writes about them well... We are all the richer for what he sees' -- PHILIP PULLMAN
