Arranged by the calendar, these nature sketches move from bats in January and tadpoles in February to nests, beetles, rabbits, squirrels, toads and the hunting sand-wasp. English, a pioneering wildlife photographer, writes with humour and close observation of small creatures most people overlook.

A charming Edwardian introduction to British wildlife for curious children and their parents. Download the free EPUB.
