Lots: An award-winning, beautiful illustrated book, the perfect gift for animal-lovers aged 5 and up by Nicola Davies, ill. Emily Sutton

From beachcombing to stargazing, from watching squirrels, ducks and worms to making berry crumble or a winter bird feast, this is a remarkable book – part poetry, part scrapbook of recipes, facts and fragments – and a glorious reminder that the natural world is on our doorstep waiting to be discovered.
