Journey through a year in the enchanting countryside, observing its changing seasons, plants and animals.

A Year in Nature is a captivating journey through the changing seasons in the picturesque countryside. Each month reveals the magical transformations of the landscape, from the snow-covered hillside in January through to the golden wheat fields of high summer.

As well as observing which plants and animals come and go throughout the year, readers will learn to observe shifts in temperature, day length and which fruits and vegetables are harvested throughout the year. Beautiful traditional artwork and gatefolds on every spread are perfect for spotting the diverse flora and fauna that make the countryside so special.
