Rebugging the Planet: The Remarkable Things that Insects (and Other Invertebrates) Do - And Why We Need to Love Them More by Vicki Hird is not just a book; it's a heartfelt call to action for everyone who cares about our planet. With a captivating foreword by Gillian Burke, this delightful read promises to inspire us to cherish the incredible world of insects and invertebrates that sustain our ecosystem.

In Rebugging the Planet, Hird presents a compelling overview of the crucial roles insects play in our environment. From pollinating plants and feeding birds to cleaning our water systems, these tiny creatures are essential yet often overlooked. With alarming statistics showing that 40% of insect species are at risk of extinction, this book urges us to take immediate action to save our minibeasts and ultimately, our planet.

Discover practical and engaging ways to nurture our insect allies through:

  • Growing a wildlife-friendly garden with native plants.
  • Engaging kids in bug treasure hunts and creating bug palaces.
  • Rebugging public spaces like parks and pavements.
  • Making informed, bug-friendly food choices.

With its infectious joy for bug life and encyclopedic knowledge, Rebugging the Planet is more than just a book; it’s a movement towards a sustainable future. Caroline Lucas, Green Party MP, emphasizes its vital message: if you’ve ever wondered about the contributions of bugs, this enlightening read is a must-have for your collection.

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.’
