Nature Trail is a gorgeous book published by Hachette.

That inviting front cover is beautiful and let’s take a moment to appreciate all the lettering, hand drawn by illustrator Nila Aya. Wonderful.

The book is based on a poem by talented writer Benjamin Zephahniahs, sharing the treats that nature has to offer. The illustrations then add a playful touch by sharing an imaginative world filled with various animals and minibeasts doing human things like reading, dancing, playing cards and celebrating birthdays with cake, or maybe they really do do that?

Perhaps it might entice readers to have a closer look outdoors, to be a little more imaginative and create their own nature trail. The rhythmic text certainly makes for an enjoyable read aloud and the art work is colourful and engaging and there is so much to spot.

This book is publishing in a few weeks time but it can be pre ordered.
