Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of nature with Finding the Mother Tree: Uncovering the Wisdom and Intelligence of the Forest by Suzanne Simard, a captivating international bestseller. This extraordinary book has garnered acclaim, being described as 'a scientific memoir as gripping as any HBO drama series' by the Observer’s Kate Kellaway.

In this groundbreaking work, Simard, a distinguished ecologist from British Columbia, unveils her transformative discovery of an underground fungal network that allows trees to communicate and thrive together. Central to this ecosystem are the Mother Trees, whose vital role is crucial for ensuring the health and resilience of our forests.

Initially faced with skepticism, Simard's revolutionary findings are now buoyed by compelling scientific evidence that reshapes our understanding of forest dynamics. This book offers:

  • Engaging Narrative: Simard intertwines her personal experiences with groundbreaking scientific research, making the complex science accessible to all.
  • Holistic Insights: Discover trees as sentient beings capable of cooperation, memory, and wisdom, revealing a deeper connection to nature.
  • Environmental Urgency: A heartfelt call to action for the preservation of our invaluable forests, highlighting the interdependence of life.

Simard's journey is not merely a scientific exploration; it bridges the gap between humanity and the natural world, emphasizing the themes of resilience and interconnectedness. Her work imparts profound lessons that resonate with anyone who seeks to understand the complex cycles of forest life that sustain our existence. Join the conversation about conservation with Finding the Mother Tree—a vital resource for our shared future.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
