Praise For…
“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
