Description

Shortlisted for The Wainwright Prize for Nature and Conservation Writing for Children, "Wilding: How to Bring Wildlife Back - The NEW Illustrated Guide" is a captivating and visually stunning tome penned by Isabella Tree. This exquisite volume chronicles the remarkable transformation of the Knepp Estate in West Sussex, brought to life through Angela Harding's enchanting lino prints and watercolours, alongside striking photographs from Knepp itself.

Within these pages, readers will discover a treasure trove of practical advice for 're-wilding' their own green spaces, accompanied by an in-depth exploration of the rewilding process. The book shines a spotlight on native fauna, including those species that have made a triumphant return to Knepp, such as the mellifluous nightingale, the majestic peregrine falcon, the elusive scarce chaser dragonfly, and the resplendent purple emperor butterfly.

Tree's narrative transports the reader to the heart of Knepp's thriving ecosystem, where the cacophony of birdsong on a spring morning is so intense it reverberates through one's very being. This is not merely a tale of Knepp's renaissance, but a comprehensive guide to nurturing wildlife in one's own locale.

Featuring illuminating timelines and fascinating insights into the lives of butterflies, bats, owls, and beetles, this guide encourages readers to decelerate and immerse themselves in the natural world. It offers a deeper understanding of the intricate connections between species and habitats, revealing the astounding potential for biodiversity that exists right on one's doorstep.

As the Daily Mail aptly notes, this book is 'Perfect for anyone looking to make the life of even a hedgehog a little easier'. It is an indispensable resource for those seeking to champion the cause of nature and foster a thriving ecosystem in their immediate surroundings.
