BUSY SPRING

Spring sunshine is nature’s alarm clock, telling wildlife to wake up after winter. You can see, hear and smell the signs of newness as the season arrives with a rush of energy. What gives spring these characteristics? Why does it trigger a burst of busyness in plants and animals? How do they help each other to grow and develop? ‘BUSY SPRING nature wakes up’ answers these and other questions, through a combination of a picture book story and an information section. The book is a follow-up to Kate-Greenaway-Medal-nominated ‘WINTER SLEEP a hibernation story’. Like that title, it features stunning, life-rich illustrations by Cinyee Chiu.
