Discover woodland wonders

Step into the enchanting world of the woodland with this action-packed board book that brings the forest to life through interactive sliders on every page. Published in collaboration with the National Trust, this engaging book is designed to inspire a love of nature in even the littlest animal lovers, making it perfect for budding naturalists and woodland adventurers.

Each vibrant page invites little ones to explore the magical world beneath the canopy and among the forest floor. With a total of nine sliders, there's something to push, pull, or turn on every page, bringing woodland creatures to life through movement and discovery. From foxes darting between trees to owls hooting from their hollow, squirrels gathering acorns to badgers emerging from their burrows - meet the fascinating animals that call the woods their home.

Created by German illustrator Anne-Kathrin Behl, whose passion for children's books began in her mother's bookstore, this beautifully crafted book combines educational content with hands-on discovery in a way that captivates curious minds time and time again.

Suitable for children from 6 months to 4 years
