“The kind of books that adults will covet and collect as well… The
language and structure is simple enough for young readers, while a
biographical timeline at the end of each book offers greater
historical complexity”
*Irish Times*
'These books are designed with admirable simplicity… the difficult,
often traumatic detail of an entire life is distilled with
tremendous skill into its essence; the result is age-appropriate
for yet unpatronising to five-year-olds, and hums with a sense
of transgressive inspiration’
*The Times Literary Supplement*
'One of a series of illustrated biographies designed for young
readers, this describes naturalist David Attenborough’s life-long
passion for and concern about looking after the natural world.’
*Bishop’s Stortford Independent*
'Strikingly illustrated, they’re superb first biographies for
younger readers.’
*Huffington Post*
"We were utterly charmed by this stylish book."
*The Evening Standard*
