RHS The Magic & Mystery of Trees

Take a breathtaking journey into the hidden lives of trees with this nature-packed exploration, produced in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS).

Discover the amazing natural science of trees and find out just how special these mighty organisms truly are. From the highest branches down to the complex "wood wide web" of roots, every part of a tree plays a vital role in the ecosystem of our woodlands. Learn how trees communicate, warn each other of predators, nurture their networks, and even take care of their families.

This stunning non-fiction book combines real photography with vibrant illustrations and patchwork-layering, making every page feel like a nature scavenger hunt. You will uncover "unbe-leaf-able" facts about extraordinary trees from around the world and the animals that call them home.

Beyond the science, this book highlights the importance of trees to our planet’s future. It explores the challenges of pollution and deforestation while showing children that it is not too late to help. Packed with fun, hands-on activities—from measuring a tree's age to instructions on how to plant your very own—this is the perfect guide for the next generation of nature guardians.

Explore the secret lives of trees, including:

• What they are and how they live.

• Tree defences and senses – how they "talk" to one another.

• Animal assistants – the creatures that help trees thrive.

• How to help – practical steps to safeguard our forests.
